DirMaint Command Sets
This table provides a summary of the DirMaint commands, the prefix keywords that are honored for each command (keywords not honored are accepted but ignored), whether the command may be used in a BATCH file or through DVHSAPI, whether the command has an available menu or prompt, whether or not password verification is required by default, and the default command sets to which the command is assigned for command levels 150A and 140A.
There are two files, 140CMDS DATADVH and 150CMDS DATADVH, that define which command belongs to what command set(s), and whether or not password verification is required for that command in that command set. The command set definitions can be changed by your installation by editing these files and following the procedures documented in the files themselves. The table shows the IBM® supplied command set definitions, as they would be after initial installation and before any tailoring is done.
The IBM default command sets for DirMaint are:
- A
- Administration, non-DASD related
- D
- DASD Management
- G
- General users
- H
- Helpdesk
- M
- Password Monitor
- O
- System Operator
- P
- Programmed application commands (DFSMS, etc.)
- S
- Support programmer
- Z
- Internal communication
Additional classes may be defined, but there is a maximum of 36 classes per command.
The legends for the prefix keywords and password requirement are located at the end of the table.
