When Commands and Statements Take Effect

Commands take effect immediately if you issue them from a console. A command remains in effect until you issue a new command that overrides it or until you restart CA‑L‑Serv.

To make a command take effect automatically at start‑up time, specify it in a command member that CA‑L‑Serv reads at start‑up time. For details on issuing commands at start‑up time, see the chapter "CA‑L‑Serv" in the Administration Guide.

Statements take effect when CA‑L‑Serv reads the partitioned data set member or executes the job containing the statement.
