Either of the following CANDE statements can be entered from a remote terminal to initiate DCSTATUS:

RUN *SYSTEM/DCSTATUS ("<dcstatus option list>")

EXECUTE *SYSTEM/DCSTATUS ("<dcstatus option list>")

The following WFL job deck can be entered from an operator display terminal (ODT) to initiate DCSTATUS:

BEGIN JOB;
  RUN *SYSTEM/DCSTATUS ("<dcstatus option list>");
END JOB

Refer to “DCSTATUS Options” in this section for a complete description of each allowable DCSTATUS option.

The [<task identifier>] and <task equation list> specifications can be added to the WFL RUN statement as desired. (Refer to the Work Flow Language (WFL) Programming Reference Manual for more information about the RUN statement.)

When either the CANDE or WFL RUN statement is used, DCSTATUS output is sent to the line printer unless LINE is file-equated to KIND=REMOTE.

For more information, see “DCSTATUS Options” in this section.
