Concepts

The ECF component is an integral part of the CA OPS/MVS base product, and is available as soon as the CA OPS/MVS main product address space finishes initialization. As CA OPS/MVS is usually installed, this is before JES, VTAM, and TSO are started. The ECF monitors commands entered from all z/OS consoles looking for one that begins with one of its special characters, as discussed in the following sections: Commands Processed by the OSF and Commands Processed by the ECF in this chapter.

Note: Enter ECF commands from real consoles only.
