Session Commands

The same session commands are available for every screen.

Issue a session command by entering it in the command line of the current screen and pressing Enter. Available session commands can be displayed in the second line of the Action Bar beneath the command line. Issue a session command directly from the Action Bar by simply placing the cursor on it and pressing Enter.

If PF keys appear in the Action Bar, display session commands by pressing PF4 (Flip) or entering the FLIP command in the command line and pressing Enter. Press PF4 or enter the FLIP command and press Enter to display the PF keys again.

The PF key symbol following the command indicates that you can also invoke the command by pressing the PF key shown.

The session command descriptions below are sorted in alphabetical order by their names.

Note:
Elements in italics (e.g. name) denote variable values that must be replaced by a real value, for example, a name.

  • Switch from PF-key display to the Action Bar.
