How to Issue z/OS and JES Commands from OPSLOG

You can issue z/OS and JES commands from the OPSLOG Browse command line. To do so, prefix the command with the OPSCMD command, OC (which is the alias of the OPSCMD command), or a slash (/).

All of the following variations of the z/OS command are acceptable from the OPSLOG Browse command line:

opscmd r 20,u
opscmd r 20'u'
oc r 20,u
oc r 20,'u'
/ r 20,u
/r 20,u
/r 20,'u'

Use these guidelines when you issue z/OS and JES commands from OPSLOG:

• The output of any z/OS or JES command you issue from OPSLOG Browse appears in the OPSLOG Browse data and in the SYSLOG.
• When you issue a system command, OPSLOG is careful not to move the display in the data stream. This is true even if the display is positioned at the Bottom of Messages and would usually move each time you interacted with the system.
• To save keystrokes, you can define a PF key with the OC command alias. For example, if you define PF key 24 with the OC command verb, you can type a z/OS command such as D TS,L in the command line and press PF24.
