Platform-Specific Commands and Features
Topics:

These topics describe platform-specific commands that are included in a Dialogue Manager procedure. They explain the DYNAM command for MVS and the rules that apply to it, as well as the syntax and use of all DYNAM subcommands. They also provide a comparison between TSO commands and JCL to equivalent DYNAM commands.

On platforms other than MVS, native commands are directly available using the -UNIX, -VMS, -WINNT, -AS/400, and -CMS series of commands.

However, file references that are symbolic logical names for the purpose of -READ -WRITE, TABLE (with external files), and HOLD AS require a FILEDEF to create the logical reference.

On VM, the native FILEDEF command of the operating system (for example, CMS FILEDEF ...) is used. On Windows, UNIX, IBM i, and OpenVMS, an internal version of FILEDEF is used. See the FILEDEF sections for details on the use of FILEDEF.
