CA Global SubSystem › REXX Language in CA-GSS › ADDRESS Environments

ADDRESS Environments

ADDRESS environments let you communicate with other products and programs external to ISERVE. They are established by issuing an ADDRESS instruction for a specific environment. They have the following format:

ADDRESS environment command

environment

Specifies the name of a product or product component.

command

Specifies a valid command for that product. All REXX‑defined ways of specifying ADDRESS are supported.

ADDRESS environments are available for the following components or products:

• ISERVE
• IDCAMS
• CA Jobtrac Job Management
• CA MIA Tape Sharing
• CA OPS/MVS Event Management and Automation
• CA SYSVIEW Performance Management
• CA View

Other CA products may provide their own ADDRESS environments. Some non‑CA products provide TSO/E REXX‑compatible ADDRESS environments that can also be used with CA‑GSS.
