Our initial program routes all users to a menu package called EasyMenu-- it's a file-driven system, and we can enable and disable menus and options on the fly. During our month end process we disable the menu that leads into our main application until we get some backups and month end processing finished.

You could do the same thing by creating a simple CL menu program that checks a data area that you can change from "yes" to "no" to allow users into your system. No need to end the subsystem!

Is it possible to disable login without bringing interactive down? I'd like to be able to
prevent users from logging in while an overnight batch runs, but I'd rather not take
interactive down to do it, if I can avoid that.


TIA,
