OPSCPU Function

The OPSCPU function returns information about the processors. You can use OPSCPU:

In OPS/REXX programs or AOF rules.
On z/OS 1.6 and higher systems.
If you use OPSCPU on prior levels of the operating system, the function returns a value of zero and it adds no lines to the EDQ.

Note: This function returns data similar to the array of processor data that the z/OS DISPLAY M=CPU command returns. However, you can use the OPSCPU function synchronously in rules or OPS/REXX programs without waiting for a response.

OPSCPU has the followings format:

var = OPSCPU(func)

func: Defines the type of call you want the OPSCPU function to make. The only valid function call is I, which stands for inquiry. Always specify the func argument. This argument is not case-sensitive.
