Definitions

entryname: Specifies the name of the directory entry to process.
ordinal: Specifies an integer number defining the position of a COMMAND statement relative to other COMMAND statements in the directory entry. The first COMMAND statement in an entry has ordinal value ‘1’.
cp_cmd: Specifies the CP command line to be inserted or deleted from the directory entry. Adding a COMMAND statement with ordinal value ‘1’ makes it the first COMMAND statement in the entry. Adding a COMMAND statement with ordinal value ‘3’ inserts it after the COMMAND statement with ordinal value ‘2’.
DELETE: Removes the COMMAND statement identified by its ordinal number.
?: Returns all COMMAND statements from the entry. The values are passed to the caller in a message, on the program stack, or in a REXX stem.
[FILE [filename]]

[STEM stemname]: These options are explained in Common API Command Options.

For details on the COMMAND statement in a directory entry refer to the definitions in the section about that statement type in the IBM CP Planning and Administration publication for your release of VM. COMMAND and CMD are treated as identical statement types.
