Usage notes
If you issue STOPUSER ON for a user, the user is notified with a Model 204 message stating that they need to notify the system manager before they can be allowed to continue. Only when the system manager issues STOPUSER OFF for the user can the user continue.
If the user being stopped answers N to the "WANT TO CONTINUE" question, the request that was active is terminated.
