CA Automation Point Keywords › Keywords for Controlling the Display › DOM Keyword

DOM Keyword

The DOM keyword deletes an action message from the action message area of the Merged Messages window and from the Action Message Recall window.

This keyword has the following format:

DOM(DOMID(domid))

DOMID

Specifies the internal pointer to an action message, which must already be stored in a status variable.

Examples:

• Suppose that you want rules to delete an action message whenever CA Automation Point receives a terminating message. Assuming that message 111ABC is the starting message and message 999XYZ is the terminating message, these sample rules statements show how to delete the starting message:

  MSGID(111ABC), HILIGHT, SET(&SAVE111ABC=&DOMID)
  MSGID(999XYZ), DOM(DOMID(&SAVE111ABC)), SET(&SAVE111ABC='')
  

  CA Automation Point deletes message 111ABC after receiving message 999XYZ and resets the &SAVE111ABC status variable to null.

• Suppose that you have a large number of tape mount messages and you want to ensure that all CA Automation Point processed tape mount messages are removed from the CA Automation Point Action Message window, even if the original tape mount message has scrolled off the screen. The following rules delete the messages:

  * See the mount request and set drive_var to domid *
  MSGID(IEF233A), SET(&(DRIVE_&WORD3)=&DOMID)

  MSGID(IEF234E) DOM(DOMID(&(DRIVE_&WORD3))) SET(&(DRIVE_&WORD3)='')
