The MODIFY command can be used from the console to issue TDP operator commands to a TDP that is already running in the z/OS environment. This has the advantage of not requiring TDP PC cells to execute. The syntax of the MODIFY command is:
F tdpid,TDPcommand_text
where:
| Syntax Element | Description |
|---|---|
| F | Abbreviation for the z/OS MODIFY command. |
| tdpid | Four-character identifier associated with the TDP subsystem (for example, TDP0, TDP1, and so on) to which the command is directed. |
| TDPcommand_text | Syntax of the TDP command. |
