Syntax of OPSPARM for Displaying Parameters

To display parameters, use this form of the OPSPARM TSO command:

OPSPARM
{SHOW(name|GROUPS|ALL)}
[INFO|NAMES|CLIST]
[SYSTEM(sysname)]
[SYSWAIT(seconds)]

SHOW

The SHOW keyword, used when you display parameter values, specifies which parameters to display. Specify one of these options:

name

Display the value of the named parameter or the values of all parameters in the named group.

GROUPS

Display a list of the parameter groups.

ALL

Display all parameter values.

INFO

Use the INFO keyword with the SHOW keyword to display the possible values the parameter can have. For example, to see all possible values of the ECFSECURITY parameter, issue this command:

OPSPARM SHOW(ECFSECURITY) INFO

NAMES

Use the NAMES keyword with the SHOW keyword to display the names and modifiability indicators of individual parameters. You cannot use NAMES with the SHOW(GROUPS) keyword.

To see the names of the parameters in the PRODACTIVITY group, issue this command:

OPSPARM SHOW(PRODACTIVITY) NAMES

CLIST

The CLIST keyword creates CLIST variables based on CA OPS/MVS parameters. These variables have the same names and corresponding values as the parameters.

The CLIST keyword is especially useful for obtaining the values of fields such as SYSID, which you can use in CLISTs for conditional processing based on the system where the CLIST runs.

SYSTEM Keyword (Used With SHOW)

The SYSTEM keyword provides CA OPS/MVS with the capability to execute the OPSPARM command on external systems.

When used with the SHOW keyword, the SYSTEM keyword indicates the name of the system on which the OPSPARM command is to execute. The response to the OPSPARM SHOW command will be returned only if the command is routed to an individual system.

The SYSTEM keyword in this command indicates that SYSA is the name of the system on which the command is to execute and from which the response is to be returned:

OPSPARM SHOW(OCWAIT) SYSTEM(SYSA)

SYSWAIT Keyword (Used With SHOW)

Use the SYSWAIT keyword to specify the number of seconds CA OPS/MVS waits for a response from a remote system. You can specify a value from 1 to 300; the default is the MSFSYSWAIT value.

Examples: SHOW Keyword

1. This example displays the value of the ECFSECURITY parameter:

   OPSPARM SHOW(ECFSECURITY)
   

2. This example displays the values of all parameters in the PRODACTIVITY parameter group:

   OPSPARM SHOW(PRODACTIVITY)
