OSSCMDS Parmlib Member

The OSSCMDS Parmlib member contains operator console commands that CA Vtape processes after successful initialization. Any MVS, JES, and CA Vtape console command can be specified in this member. If you do not require commands at startup, code $NULL as the value for the StartupCommands attribute. The attribute is in the Parmlib Directory Section of OSPARMS Parmlib member.

To define the desired startup console commands, use the CMD or COMMAND attributes in the Startup Commands Section of the OSSCMDS member. For example:

<StartupCommands>
    CMD='D U,TAPE,ONLINE'
    CMD='&SVTS DISPLAY PARMLIB,SHORT,HARDCOPY'

    CMD='&SVTS DISPLAY STATUS'
    COMMAND='D A,L'
    COMMAND='&SVTS D A'

Note: The subsystem-ID symbolic &SVTS in the example ensures that the initializing Subsystem processes the SVTS command. If ‘SVT2 D A’ is coded, the command processes only when a Subsystem with a subsystem-ID of SVT2 is initializes.
