CA-L-Serv Commands

Where to Issue Commands or Statements

Commands can be issued from a console, extended console, or from the CA‑L‑Serv parameter data set.

To issue a CA‑L‑Serv command from a console, prefix it with an MVS MODIFY command (or its abbreviation, F). Include the name of the CA-L‑Serv started task. For example, to direct an ATTACH FILESERVER command to the CA‑L‑Serv started task, issue this command from a console:

F LSERV,ATTACH FILESERVER

To execute a sequence of CA‑L‑Serv commands from a member in the CA‑L‑Serv parameter data set, issue the READ command as follows:

F LSERV,READ member

You need system‑level authority to issue CA‑L‑Serv commands from a console.

Statements can be issued from a partitioned data set member or in the JCL of the job (depending on the statement being used).
