TSO commands

This chapter describes the syntax for the IBM Z Workload Scheduler TSO commands, BACKUP, BULKDISC, JSUACT, OPINFO, OPSTAT, SRSTAT, and WSSTAT.

You can abbreviate keywords to their shortest unambiguous form. For example, you can shorten the AVAIL keyword to an ‘Aʼ. Before you invoke an IBM Z Workload Scheduler TSO command, you must allocate the EQQMLIB data set to the TSO address space, either by adding DD statements to the logon procedure, or by using the ALLOC command after TSO logon. Error messages are sent directly to the terminal.

The TSO commands can be directed to a specific IBM Z Workload Scheduler subsystem (tracker). The tracker does not have to be active when you issue the command. An event is generated and queued in ECSA along with other job-tracking events.
