z/OS V1R9.0 TSO/E Command Reference

EXECUTIL Commandv Specify whether the system exec library, whose default name is SYSEXEC, is tobe closed upon completion of the exec or is to remain openv Start and stop tracing of an execv Stop the execution of an execv Suppress and resume terminal output from an execv Change entries in a function package directoryv Specify whether the system exec library (the default is SYSEXEC) is to besearched in addition to SYSPROC.Additional considerations for using EXECUTILEXECUTIL command syntaxv All of the EXECUTIL operands are mutually exclusive, that is, you can onlyspecify one of the operands on the command.v The HI, HT, RT, TS, and TE operands on the EXECUTIL command are also, bythemselves, immediate commands. Immediate commands are commands thatcan be issued from the terminal if an exec is executing and you press theattention interrupt key and enter attention mode. These commands areprocessed immediately. z/OS TSO/E REXX Reference, describes the immediatecommands.v In general, EXECUTIL works on a language processor environment basis. Thatis, EXECUTIL only affects the current environment in which EXECUTIL is issued.For example, if you are in split screen in ISPF and issue EXECUTIL TS from thesecond ISPF screen to start tracing, only execs that are invoked from that ISPFscreen are traced. If you invoke an exec from the first ISPF screen, the exec isnot traced.Using the EXECDD and SEARCHDD operands may affect subsequent languageprocessor environments that are created. z/OS TSO/E REXX Reference,describes the concept of language processor environments and how EXECUTILEXECDD and EXECUTIL SEARCHDD may affect more than one environment.►► EXECUTIL EXECDD( CLOSE )NOCLOSETSTEHTRTHIRENAMESEARCHDD( NO )YES►◄RENAMERENAMENAME(function_name)SYSNAME(sys_name)DD(sys_dd)EXECUTIL command operandsEXECDD(CLOSE | NOCLOSE)Specifies whether the system exec library is to be closed upon completion ofthe exec.Chapter 1.
