CLI overview
Output
The command is processed synchronously and the output is redirected to STDOUT. When invoked in TSO, the output will be displayed on the screen. When invoked in a batch job, it will be redirected to a SYSPRINT DD card. If the requester of the command is not available, in the event that the job or TSO session was cancelled, the output will be printed in the executing agent's log. The exception is LISTDSN and LISTVOL outputs, which will not be printed to the agent's log as their outputs may be very large.
