Commands for data sharing environments

As you begin to operate your data sharing environment, you should understand how commands work in a data sharing environment.

Command routing
You can control operations on an individual member of a data sharing group from any z/OS console by entering commands prefixed with the appropriate command prefix.
Command scope in Db2 data sharing
Many commands that are used in a data sharing environment affect only the member for which they are issued.
Commands issued from application programs
You can enter commands from an application program that is attached to a Db2 subsystem through any of the attachment facilities: IMS, CICS®, TSO, CAF, and RRSAF.
Command authorization
Data sharing does not introduce any new techniques for establishing and checking authorization IDs.
Where messages are received
You can receive messages from all members at a single console.
