The first two parts of each command, the command name
and the first operand cannot be changed by the USS table.

MODIFY |
procname |
VARY |
NET |
All other operands of a VTAM® command
can be changed in a user-defined table.
Note: The VTAM START
and HALT commands cannot be changed through a USS table.
Include definitions for all operands, even if you are
not redefining all of them. Any operand that does not appear in the
user table will be passed unconverted to the command processor.
- Operands that describe the command function (such as TERM on the
VARY NET,TERM command, ADJSSCPS on the DISPLAY NET,ADJSSCPS) cannot
be changed. However, other operands can be redefined (such as LU1,
LU2, and NOTIFY on the VARY NET,TERM command).
VARY NET,TERM,LU1=luname,LU2=lu2name,NOTIFY=YES
- Keyword operands can be converted into another operand with the
same value. For example
MODIFY MSG=YES
can
be converted into MODIFY MSGMOD=YES
- It is also possible to specify a default value to be used if the
operand is omitted or specified without a value.
USSPARM PARM=MSGMOD,VALUE=YES
USSPARM PARM=MSGMOD,DEFAULT=YES
MODIFY procname,MSGMOD=,
MODIFY procname
- An operand value specified by the operator cannot be replaced
using the USS table.
For example,
MODIFY procname,MSGMOD=NO
cannot
be converted into
MODIFY procname,MSGMOD=YES
- Commands cannot be redefined to perform more than one function.
For example, the following commands
DISPLAY NET,CDRMS
DISPLAY NET,CLSTRS
cannot be converted to one command
DISPLAY NET,CDRMS,CLSTRS
