OPS/REXX Built-in Functions › OPSPRM Function › System Argument

System Argument

The system argument provides CA OPS/MVS with the capability to execute the OPSPRM function on external systems that have been defined to the MSF. The MSF establishes VTAM sessions between copies of CA OPS/MVS, permitting any copy to issue a command on any other copy and to receive its response.

You can specify any of these values for system:

• Specify the name of an individual system for which the function is to execute
• Specify EXT to indicate that the function should execute for all active systems other than the local system
• Specify ALL to indicate that the function should execute for all active systems

As referred to here, active is the status of the MSF systems through which the communication takes place.

Note: A response to the OPSPRM function is returned only if you specify an individual system name for system.
