Mainframe Access provides a number of console commands that you can use to control execution and display the operational status of Mainframe Access. To use these commands, you must be authorized to use z/OS system console commands. Most of the commands are variants of the z/OS Modify (F) command, with the general format:
F your-procedure-name,command-text
where the parameters are:
your-procedure-name
|
The name of your Mainframe Access startup JCL as explained in the section
Mainframe Access Data Sets in the chapter
Configuration
|
command-text
|

You use the z/OS Start (S) command to start Mainframe Access:
S your-procedure-name
You use the z/OS Stop (P) command to stop Mainframe Access:
P your-procedure-name
You can enter the commands in any of the following ways:
- From an z/OS system console
- Using an interface that allows the entry of z/OS system commands, such as IBM's TSO/ISPF SDSF (System Display and Search Facility)
- Using a Telnet client through an Internet connection. You cannot start or stop Mainframe Access using a Telnet client. For more information on using a Telnet client see the section
