CMD

This parameter defines your own CA‑GSS operator commands (in addition to the CA‑GSS operator commands provided by CA). IMODs process these commands and the results reported by the various CA‑GSS operator command platforms.

Syntax

CMD cmd imod [argstring]

Parameters

cmd

Word to be recognized as an operator console command. Each command consists of an uppercase prefix and an optional lowercase suffix. The length of the uppercase portion is noted and used as the minimum required length. The lowercase portion is used to extend the required match to the actual length of the operator-entered string.

Note: The actual comparison is not case-sensitive.

imod

Name of the IMOD that is triggered to process the command.

argstring

(Optional) Argument string to be passed to the IMOD with the arguments entered by the operator. This string is passed to the IMOD concatenated in front of any operator-specified arguments.

Usage Notes

Do not confuse the CMD parameter (that creates a command recognized when issued to CA‑GSS) with the COMMAND parameter (creates a z/OS console operator command).
