OSPCMDS Parmlib Member

The OSPCMDS Parmlib member contains operator console commands that CA Vtape processes before starting the actual shutdown process. Any MVS, JES, and CA Vtape console command can be specified in this member. If you do not require commands at shutdown, code $NULL as the value for the ShutdownCommands attribute. The attribute is in the Parmlib Directory Section of OSPARMS Parmlib member.

To define the desired shutdown console commands, use the CMD or COMMAND attributes under the Shutdown Commands Section, as shown in the following example:

<ShutdownCommands>
     CMD='D U,TAPE,ONLINE'
     CMD='&SVTS DISPLAY PARMLIB,M,H'
     CMD='&SVTS DISPLAY STATUS'
     COMMAND='D A,L'
     COMMAND='&SVTS D A'

Note: The subsystem-ID symbolic &SVTS in the example ensures that the Subsystem that shuts down processes the SVTS command. If you code ‘SVT2 D A’, only when a Subsystem with a subsystem-ID of SVT2 is shut down is the command that is processed.
