SPAN
Purpose
Use the SPAN statement for span of control when SECOPTS.OPSPAN=NETV is specified in the CNMSTYLE member or OPSPAN=NETV is specified on the REFRESH command. SPAN is coded in an operator profile and defines the spans that an operator can add to span of control by using the START SPAN command. These spans are not in the operator's control at logon.
You can use SPAN as often as necessary to define all the span names you want. You code this statement in the DSIPRF member specified by a PROFILEN statement associated with the operator. Changes made to the SPAN statement take effect the next time an operator logs on to the NetView® program using the profile containing the statement. See OPERATOR and PROFILEN to determine how a PROFILEN statement is associated with an operator.
Syntax
