OPS/REXX Interface with the OSF

Use the ADDRESS OSF statement to pass host commands to the CA OPS/MVS OSF TSO servers for execution there. For example, the following statement tells the OSF to schedule a TSO command for execution in an OSF TSO server to list the attributes of data set SYS1.LINKLIB:

address OSF "LISTDS 'SYS1.LINKLIB'"

Note: If you need information to help you decide which host environment to use (for example, to decide whether ADDRESS TSO or ADDRESS OSF better suits your purposes), see the AOF coding guidelines. The AOF Rules User Guide provides a summary of AOF guidelines.

Use ADDRESS OSFTSL and ADDRESS OSFTSP to schedule long-running or high priority TSO commands to OSFTSL and OSFTSP servers respectively. Use ADDRESS USS to execute USS commands in OSF USS servers.
