Once your work is completed in the mainframe, it is always good practice to logoff from your session. The LOGOFF command is used to terminate your terminal session.

The system will do the following when the LOGOFF command is executed -

• Free all the datasets allocated for your session.
• Data remaining in storage is lost.
• Terminate the TSO/E session normally.

Process -
