Conventions Used in this Guide

The following conventions are used throughout this guide to document features, functions, and other aspects of the system:

• Variable text is entered in italics. This is most commonly used for dataset names and console commands.

  For example, VVE_SCRATCH=volser where volser is the Virtual Volume VOLSER.

• Commands are entered in uppercase and lower-case. The uppercase portion of the command is the abbreviated form of the command or the minimum number of characters that must be entered for the product to recognize the command. The lower-case portion is provided for clarity.
