    The MVS Operator Console MODIFY commands, PAUSELISTENERS and
    RESUMELISTENERS, in the WebSphere Application Server for z/OS
    do
    not include Activation Specification listeners when listening
    is

    handle new messages.
    

Problem conclusion

  • WebSphere Application Server for z/OS environment variable,
    pause_listeners_include_cra, has been added to enable the
    inclusion of Action Specifications among the listeners being
    paused or resumed. In addition to the MODIFY commands,
    this update applies to other means of pausing and resuming
    listeners, including autopause and wsadmin scripting.
    
    APAR PI43141 is currently targeted for inclusion in Fix Packs
    8.0.0.12 and 8.5.5.7 of WebSphere Application Server.
