34.1 Ending the Monitor

Navigation

From Electronic Burst and Bind (G98E), choose End EBB Monitor

Because spool files automatically process at a specific time, you might need to end the monitor to perform other processes or when reports are not processing. When you end the monitor, EBB becomes inactive and does not process spool files. You must then start the monitor.

End the monitor when you want to:

  • Clear the monitor before adding a new version. Clearing the monitor deletes all spool files.

  • Backup files EBB uses.

  • Change a version or select key.

  • Restart the monitor.

Note:

Even though the monitor may be inactive, the indicators are reset when you end the monitor.

To end the monitor

  1. After you choose End EBB Monitor, choose Display EBB Message Queue.

    On Display Messages, the follow message displays:

    EBB monitor ended

  2. Exit (F3) the message queue.
