Using the CMS LOAD and START commands

HLASM Programmer's Guide
SC26-4941-06

After you have assembled your program, you can run the object program in the TEXT file produced by the assembler. The TEXT file produced is relocatable and can be run merely by loading it into virtual storage with the LOAD command and using the START command to begin running. For example, if you have assembled a source program named CREATE, you have a file named CREATE TEXT. Use the LOAD command to load your program into storage, and then use the START command to run the program:
LOAD CREATE
START
In this example, the file CREATE TEXT contains the object code from the assembly.

The CMS START command can be used to pass user-defined parameters. For a complete description of the START command, see the applicable CMS Command Reference for your VM environment, as listed under Bibliography.
