AOF SETAUTO—Enable a Rule at Startup

The SETAUTO command automatically enables a rule or rule set at the next CA OPS/MVS startup.

This command has the following format:

ADDRESS AOF "SETAUTO keywords"
  [ruleset|ruleset.rule]
  [SYSTEM(ALL|EXT|sysnames)]
  [SYSWAIT(seconds)]
  [OUTPUT|NOOUTPUT]

Issuing the SETAUTO command produces these results:

• If the command executes successfully, the RC variable is set to zero and the external data queue contains no output lines.
• The SETAUTO command also can automatically save a compiled version of a rule or a rule set if you do the following:
  • Set the CA OPS/MVS AOFPRECOMPILED parameter to YES.
  • Set the CA OPS/MVS AOFPRECOMPILEDDSN parameter to the name of a valid compiled rules library. For more information, see the Parameter Reference.

Usage Notes

Keep these things in mind when using the SETAUTO command:

• The ruleset operand automatically turns on auto-enablement for all rules in the named rule set. The ruleset.rule operand automatically turns on enablement for a specific rule in the named rule set.
• The CA OPS/MVS product allows you to issue the SETAUTO command for a rule or rule set that is already enabled automatically.
• All rule members must have valid ISPF statistics.

Note: You can use the ISPF Delete PDS Member utility to delete compiled rules; however, since you cannot read the member names, you will have no knowledge of which rules you are deleting.
