Many commands use the MVS operator MODIFY command. Throughout this
topic, the command syntax is:
The command F is the abbreviation of the MVS MODIFY command.
The OAM address space can be defined in one of the following ways:
- As the name of the cataloged procedure in SYS1.PROCLIB that you
use to start the OAM address space:
- As the task ID assigned in the address space START command:
F OAM,START procname.OAM,…
Tip: If your system programmer chooses to use a name other
than OAM, use that name in the place of OAM.
Two SMS operator commands are related to the OAM address space:
- DISPLAY SMS—for determining the status of OAM, OSMC,
storage groups, optical volumes, optical disk drives, and optical
libraries. See Displaying status for specific
information on the DISPLAY command.
- VARY SMS—for varying optical disk drives or optical
libraries online or offline. See Varying optical drives and libraries for
specific information on the VARY command.
The following operator commands for the OAM address space
are based on the MVS MODIFY command:
- AUDIT—for auditing library resident volumes. See Auditing a volume for specific information on the
AUDIT command.
- DISPLAY—for displaying the current SETDISK, SETOAM,
SETOPT, and SETOSMC settings. See Displaying SETDISK, SETOAM, SETOPT, SETOSMC, and SETTLIB parameters for
specific information on the DISPLAY command.
- DUMP—for capturing data used for diagnostic purposes.
See Scheduling an SVC dump for the OAM address space for specific information on
the DUMP command.
- LABEL—for labeling the two volumes of an optical
disk on an operator-accessible optical drive. For specific information
on the LABEL command, see the following topic:
- QUERY—for displaying summary, detail, or both types
of information regarding active and pending tape and optical requests.
See Querying summary and detail information for pending and active requests for specific information
on the QUERY command.
- RELABEL—for changing the volume serial number for
an existing optical disk volume. See Relabeling a 3995 optical disk volume for
specific information on the RELABEL command.
- REMAP—for initiating a REMAP on a 3995 optical library.
See Remapping an optical library for specific information
on the REMAP command.
- RESTART—for restarting the OAM address space without
issuing a STOP and START command. See Restarting the OAM address space for
specific information on the RESTART command.
- START—for starting an OSMC storage management cycle,
an OSMC library space management cycle, an OSMC DASD space management
cycle, an OSMC Volume Recovery utility, an OSMC Single Object Recovery
utility, an OSMC Move Volume utility, an OSMC Tape Recycle command,
or the automatic access to backup function. For specific information
on the START command, see the following topics:
- STOP—for stopping OAM, all OSMC processing, OSMC
processing for an individual storage group, an OSMC Move Volume utility,
an OSMC Volume Recovery Utility, an OSMC Tape Recycle command process,
or the Automatic Access to Backup recovery function. See Stopping OAM functions for specific information on the STOP
command.
- UPDATE—for updating fields in the DB2 Volume Table
and the Tape Volume Table with the F OAM command. This command also
dynamically updates the SETOAM, SETOPT, SETOSMC, and OAMXCF settings.
For specific information on the UPDATE command, see the following
topics:
The following operator commands for the OAM address space are based
on the MVS LIBRARY command:
- EJECT—for removing an optical disk from an optical
library. See Ejecting an optical disk for specific
information on the EJECT command.
- RESET—for re-enabling the CBRUXSAE user authorization
installation exit after it has been disabled or bypassed.
Two MVS operator commands are related to the OTIS address space:
- START—for starting or restarting OTIS. See Starting OTIS for specific information on this
use of the START command.
- STOP—for stopping OTIS. You must use the MVS MODIFY
command when stopping OTIS. See Stopping OTIS for
specific information on this use of the STOP command.
