Space announcement This space provides the same content as before, but the organization of the home page has changed. The content is now organized based on logical branches instead of legacy book titles. We hope that the new structure will help you quickly find the content that you need.

Starting the ISPF interface


The XBM task must be fully initialized before it can communicate with the ISPF interface.

To invoke the ISPF interface, enter one of the following TSO commands.

  • %XBMISPF 'optionsMember'
  • EXEC 'libraryName(XBMISPF)' 'optionsMember'
Warning

Note

The second command invokes XBMISPF explicitly from a library. For either command, specifying the options member is optional.
