ADDRESS AP Host Command Environment

From CA OPS/MVS, you can invoke the following through the ADDRESS AP host command environment:

• REXX programs—REXX command requests are queued for execution by AXCREXX.

  Note: The length of the REXX argument list (REXX program name and its arguments) is limited to 505 characters. An incoming argument list longer than 505 characters is truncated.

• NMFIND commands—NMFIND requests appear in the Session NM_Requests window.

  Notes:

  • NMFIND requests are run through CA Automation Point Rules so the NMFIND command can be launched on the Automation Point desktop, not so you can write rules against them.
  • CA Automation Point limits NMFIND command requests to 509 characters.
• PPQ WRITE commands—PPQ WRITE commands are submitted as soon as CA Automation Point receives them. If a PPQ WRITE command fails on the local CA Automation Point workstation, an error message displays in the AP Messages window.

  Note: CA Automation Point limits PPQ WRITE requests to 30,000 characters.
