Specifying the TCB address of a task with FORCE TCB

Description: In V2R1, a new operand is available for the FORCE operator command, to enable you to specify the TCB address of a particular task for the system to terminate. This function is intended to be used to preserve system availability when a task holds resources required by other critical functions when there seems to be no other alternative to IPL.

When change was introduced: z/OS® V2R1.
