MVS console interface
By default, the batch launcher establishes an environment for receiving the following MVS operator commands.
START
: If the launcher is running under an MVS started task, a callback interface allows a Java™ application to access the parameters on theSTART
command.STOP (P)
: By default, runs the System.exit(0) method, which shuts down the Java VM. A callback interface allows an application to customize this behavior.MODIFY (F)
: A callback interface allows a Java application to receive and process these commands.
The JZOS toolkit also includes an API for issuing single or multiline write-to-operator (WTO) messages to the system console or log.
For more information about the Java APIs for WTOs and MVS operator commands, see Writing messages to the system console or log and Handling MVS START and MODIFY commands.
