MODIFY Command—Modify the SCS Address Space

The MODIFY commands are used to control the operation of the SCS address space. You can enter MODIFY or the F abbreviation.

To authorize, use one of the following methods, depending on how the SCS address space was started:

• If the SCS address space was started as a started task, provide UPDATE authority to the SAF OPERCMDS class resource named MVS.MODIFY.STC.procname.
• If the SCS address space was started as an initiated job, provide UPDATE authority to the SAF OPERCMDS class resource named MVS.MODIFY.JOB.jobname.

The MODIFY commands are:

• ABEND
• DUMP
• STOP

The MODIFY command specifications are as follows:

• Parameters are specified as keyword parameters. Subparameters of a keyword can be positional.
• Parameters can be specified in any order.
• Parameter strings can include comments anywhere a space could appear. Start a comment with the starting comment delimiter (/*). (Optional) End the comment with the ending delimiter (*/).
• Separate the keywords with two or more specified parameters (each keyword with optional value) with a comma or a space.
• Separate the keywords with two or more subparameters with a comma or a space.

  Note: Ending a comment delimiter is optional if the comment is at the end of the parameter string.
