REWORD Keyword

The REWORD keyword rewords the text of a message before it is displayed in the Merged Messages window, the Action Message Recall window, or the Normal Message Recall window; or rewords the text of a command before CA Automation Point sends it to the console.

This keyword has the following format:

REWORD(text)

text

Specifies the words of the message or command in the order in which you want them sent.

Usage Notes:

• If the message was issued by the Notification Server, the rewording of this message will be displayed in the function window with a default name of AP Notification Messages (window type of VOXMSG).
• If the message was received by the CA OPS/MVS Interface, the rewording of this message will be displayed in the function window with a default name of CA-OPS/MVS Messages (window type of OPSMSG).

Examples:

• The following is the JES2 $HASP373 message:

  $HASP373 TESTJOB STARTED - INIT 1 - CLASS C - SYS SYSA
  

  To remove the last three words from the message and make it fit on one line, write the following rule:

  MSGID($HASP373), WHEN (&JOBID(1:3) EQ JOB),
  REWORD(&WORD1 &WORD2 &WORD3 &WORD4 &WORD5 &WORD6 &WORD7 &WORD8 &WORD9)

  After the rule executes the message, the message appears like this:

  $HASP373 TESTJOB STARTED - INIT 1 - CLASS C
  

• A user enters the following command in the Command Window from the CA Automation Point Desktop:

  SLIP0C1
  

  The following rule rewords this pseudo command, and issues the complex z/OS command to the console instead:

  CMDIN(SLIP0C1), REWORD(SLIP SET, ID=P0C1, COMP=0C1, A=SVCD, MATCHLIM=1, JOBNAME=TESTPGR, END)
