Abstract
An arrangement and method of inactivating dynamically an exit in a computer system. An exit is a program module associated with a first program and which is invoked while active by a second program in response to the occurrence of a prescribed system event. When a request to inactivate exit is received, it is determined if one or more invocations of the exit are in progress or scheduled. If an invocation of the exit is not in progress or scheduled, the exit is marked as inactive. However, if one or more invocations of the exit are in progress or scheduled, the exit is marked as inactive only when all such invocations that are in progress or scheduled are complete.
