Stopping OMPROUTE

OMPROUTE can be stopped in several ways:

For information on the environment variable _BPX_JOBNAME, see z/OS UNIX System Services Planning. For information on the D OMVS,U=userid command, see z/OS MVS System Commands.

Tip: When OMPROUTE is taken down, it should be kept down for at least 3 times the largest dead router interval of any IPv4 OSPF interfaces using MD5 authentication. The same applies to routers adjacent to interfaces using MD5 authentication. Do not stop and start OMPROUTE without waiting for this required time interval.
