CPFWAIT—WAIT Keyword Default

Valid on z/OS and z/VM.

Use the CPFWAIT control option to set a default value for the TSS command WAIT keyword.

At least one of the CPF‑related control options must be entered at CA Top Secret startup to use the CPF. If not, CPF might not be activated until the next CA Top Secret startup and no CPF control options are accepted by CA Top Secret until that time.

If no CPF journal file has been specified and if WAIT(NO) is specified on the TSS command or if the CPFWAIT control option is set to NO, then there is no way to view the output generated as the result of that command.

The CPF recovery file is used if defined and when CPFWAIT(NO) or WAIT(NO) is specified.

All entry methods are accepted.

This control option has the following format:

CPFWAIT(YES|NO)
YES

(Default) Specifies a default value for the TSS command WAIT keyword.

NO

Specifies that no waiting will occur for messages.

The value entered here can be overridden by the WAIT value on an individual TSS command.
