OPSREQ Command Processor—Invoke AOF Request Rules

The OPSREQ command processor invokes AOF request (REQ) rules. When OPSREQ executes, it scans the production rule set of the AOF for a REQ rule with an event specification that matches the request code. If it finds one or more matches, OPSREQ executes the processing section of that rule or rules.

For more information about REQ rules, see the AOF Rules User Guide.

Use one of the following formats for the OPSREQ command processor.

requestcode

Specifies the one- to ten-character name of the request event, which OPSREQ compares to the request event identifiers of any enabled request rules. The requestcode must begin with an alphabetic or national character.

TEXT

(Optional) Specifies text that can be passed to request rules.

Note: When specifying the TEXT string, the sum of the lengths of the request code, the text string, and 1 cannot exceed 128 characters.

SUBSYS

(Optional) For more information on the SUBSYS keyword, see Specify a Subsystem ID on a POI Command Processor in this chapter.
