OPSVIEW Command Option › Use the Output of a Command to Build Another Command

Use the Output of a Command to Build Another Command

If the command you issue from the MVS/JES command processor generates output, the output appears in the bottom section of the panel. The following sample MVS/JES Command Processor panel shows the results that occurred when a user issued the z/OS D TS,L command:

--------- MSI1 -------- MVS/JES Command Processor ------------ENTER A COMMAND
===>
SYSID ===>           IMSID ===>      WAIT ===>     MFORM =>   SCROLL ===> CSR
-------------------- COMMAND OUTPUT AT 13:40:52 ON 10/19/95 -------ROW 1 OF 6

You can use the output from one command to build another command.

To use the output from one command to build another command

1. Position the cursor on the line of output that you want to use.
2. Modify the output line.
3. Press Enter.

   In the following sample, the user modified the first line of output that appeared in the panel above by changing D TS,L to D TS,LBERRY:

   --------- MSI1 -------- MVS/JES Command Processor ------------ENTER A COMMAND
   ===>
   SYSID ===>           IMSID ===>      WAIT ===>     MFORM =>   SCROLL ===> CSR
   -------------------- COMMAND OUTPUT AT 13:40:52 ON 10/19/03 -------ROW 1 OF 6
   D TS,LBERRY
   IEE104I 13.40.40 93.069 ACTIVITY 193

   When the user presses Enter, a panel similar to the following one appears:

   --------- MSI1 -------- MVS/JES Command Processor ------------ENTER A COMMAND
   ===>
   SYSID ===>           IMSID ===>      WAIT ===>     MFORM =>   SCROLL ===> CSR
