Use the following twbcmd syntax examples for commands on all platforms except z/OS.
- For job-level commands:
twbcmd <jobid> <command>
where jobId is the identification of the target job, and command is the name of the external command that you want to execute.
- For operator-level commands:
twbcmd <jobid> <operator command Id> <attribute name>=<value>
or, where more than one attribute is specified,
twbcmd <jobid> <operator command Id> <attribute name>=<value>, <attribute name>=<value>
where jobId is the name of the target job, operatorCommandId is “Stream” (the only operator that supports these commands), attributeName is the attribute you want to employ, and value is the specified rate or periodicity.
On z/OS, use MODIFY syntax as follows.
- For job-level commands:
F <jobid>,APPL=<command>
Quotation marks are not necessary around the command name. If quotes are present, they are sent as part of the command.
- For operator-level commands:
F <jobid>,APPL=<operator name> <attribute name>=<value>
or, where more than one attribute is specified,
F <jobid>,APPL=<operator name> <attribute name>=<value>, <attribute>=<value>
