CLEAR STATION

Purpose

Use at the server console to clear a workstation connection.

WARNING: If you use CLEAR STATION while the workstation is in the middle of a transaction or a file update, files might be saved with incomplete data.

Syntax

CLEAR STATION {n|all}

Parameter	Use to
n	Specify the connection number of the workstation you want to clear from the server.
all	Clear all workstation connections to the server.

Using CLEAR STATION

To determine the connection number, from MONITOR's Available Options, select Connections > Connection Information at the server console or use NLIST on a workstation.

You can use CLEAR STATION either after a workstation has crashed and left files open on a server or before you need to bring down the server.

CLEAR STATION closes the workstation files and erases the server's internal tables for the station, including drive mappings not saved in the login script.

The communication link between server and station is broken.
