Help With Messages

The CMS HELP facility provides information about CA VM:Schedule commands and system messages. The information is the same as the information in this guide. The HELP files include complete descriptions of messages that are listed but not explained here.

The CA VM:Schedule Messages Reference Guide lists all messages that the server can generate, explains the possible causes of each message, and tells you how to respond to that message. For more information about a system message you receive, refer to CA VM:Schedule Message Reference Guide or use the CMS HELP facility for that message.

To use the CMS HELP facility for a CA VM:Schedule message, type help followed by a space, then the three-character product identifier (vmd), the message number, and the severity code. Do not type the three-letter code that displays after the product identifier; this code is the routine or module that issued the message.

For example, to get help on the message VMDCOM1091E, enter the following command from CMS:

help vmd1091e

When you have finished reading the message help, press PF3 to exit the CMS HELP facility.

For more information about using the CMS HELP facility, refer to the CMS user guide for your system.
