352.0. "Killing the DECterm controller" by CYGNI::CARPENTER (Genius is second nature) Wed Mar 08 1989 08:52

    I'm not sure if this has been discussed before, but here goes:-
    
    
    
    How do you stop the DECterm controller (process DECW$TE_1) on VMS?
    
    
    I run a remote DECterm controller from which I create all my DECterm
    windows (including one I SET HOST to my local system). I therefore
    do not require the DECterm controller running on my workstation
    but every time I try to kill it the session manager restarts it
    again.
    
    When you have a 6mb VS2000 you need all the free pages you can get!!

352.1Why even create it?PRNSYS::LOMICKAJJeff LomickaWed Mar 08 1989 14:0312
You can prevent the session manager from creating DECW$TE_1 in the
first place by creating a process of the name "DECW$TE_n" from your
DECW$LOGIN.COM. (n is the unit number of the session manager's WSA
device.)  The session manager will see "duplicate name" and continue. 
Be sure to set your emulator count to 0, or the session manager will
get very upset at you.

should work.
