ARRANGE

Command Type: Primary

The ARRANGE command lets you redesign your screen by showing the screen columns in whatever order you wish.

After you type ARRANGE or ARR, a window opens showing a list of all of the columns on your screen. To rearrange your columns, select one or more of the following line commands.

M (Move column)

M specifies the column you want to move. It will be moved before or after the column that you select with either the A or B command.

A (After this column)

The column you specified with M (Move column) will move after the column you specify with A.

B (Before this column)

The column you specified with M (Move column) will move before the column you specify with B.

L (Lock/unlock column)

Typing L toggles between locked and unlocked. Locked columns appear first from the left of the screen and are, therefore, the highest in the list of columns on the ARRANGE subscreen.

If multiple columns are locked, some of which you want to unlock, and you do not select to unlock the lowest locked column, the column you select moves below the other locked columns and changes its status to unlocked.

Columns that are unlocked that you want to lock will move up to the position below the last locked column.

If you move an unlocked column between two other unlocked columns, it will remain unlocked. If you move a locked column between two other locked columns, it will remain locked.

However, if you move an unlocked column before or after a locked column, it will become locked. And, if you move a locked column before or after an unlocked column, it will become unlocked.

H (Hide/unhide column)

Typing H toggles between hidden or visible. Hidden columns appear last in the list of columns on the ARRANGE subscreen and no longer appear on your screen.

If multiple columns are hidden, some of which you want to make visible, and you do not select to make visible the highest hidden column, the column you select moves above the other hidden columns and changes its status to visible.

Hidden columns move to the bottom of the list of columns above the first hidden column.

If you move a hidden column between two other hidden columns, it will remain hidden. If you move a visible column between two other visible columns, it will remain visible.

However, if you move a visible column before or after a hidden column, it will become hidden. And, if you move a hidden column before or after a visible column, it will become visible.

After you make your changes, you can type END on the command line or press PF3 to view the changes you requested. To cancel your changes, type CANCEL on the command line. To restore the defaults, type RESET on the command line.

The ARRANGE command can be used on any screen that contains columns. You can save any changes for future use on the Fault Summary, Abend-AID Directory, File Request Summary, and Task/Wait Analysis screens.

Example: Type ARR to bring up the Arrange Column Order subscreen.

Command Type: Primary

The CHAIN command runs a control block chain based on user-specified parameters. For each control block located, the chain facility creates a paperclip entry in the current paperclip table. The comments associated with the paperclip entries reflect the entry number of the chain, with the user-specified chain prefix as the chain name.

If you type the CHAIN command without one of its optional parameters, Abend-AID displays the Chain Command Parameters screen. This screen includes entry fields for specifying all of the parameters associated with the CHAIN command, including the chain prefix and the chain termination value. For more information about this screen, see Running Control Block Chains .

address

The address at which the CHAIN command begins executing. The address must be a valid hexadecimal address.

If the CHAIN command is entered without the optional offset, a screen will appear to fill in data about the list of entries to be processed.

Example: CHAIN 00007000 +10

This example specifies the starting address, 00007000, and the link address offset +10. It will run a chain starting at location 7000 and use the link address in 7010 to find the next entry in the chain. Processing continues until all entries are processed.

CLEARIDX

Command Type: Primary

WARNING: This command should not be used directly by a user. Normally it will be invoked in the processing of the PRINT #SUMMARY standard report.

The CLEARIDX command clears the index, if any, for a printed report. This prevents existing index entries for prior PRINT commands from being included with those for the current report.

CLIP

Command Type: Primary

Restrictions: This command is valid on the Memory Display and Storage Map Display screens only.

The CLIP command displays paperclip entries.

The paperclip function provides an automatic and convenient method for you to keep track of your navigation through the Memory Display. Each time the displacement shown on the Memory Display equals zero, an entry is automatically added to a table of addresses, known as the current paperclip table. You can also explicitly add an entry to the current paperclip table by placing your cursor on any address displayed on the Memory Display and pressing the Enter key.

A current paperclip table is maintained for each user accessing a given dump. Your current paperclip table can be accessed using the PCLP primary command. The help text for the Current Paperclip Table screen provides details about the information provided and use of the Current Paperclip Table screen.

FIRST

Displays the storage associated with the first (oldest) entry in the current paperclip table. FIRST is the default if you execute the CLIP command without any keyword parameter.

LAST

Displays the storage associated with the last (newest) entry in the current paperclip table.

LOCK

Locks the current paperclip entry.

NEXT

Displays the storage associated with the next newest entry in the current paperclip table (relative to the current position).

You can easily reaccess any paperclipped address using either of the clip tab selectable fields (PREV, NEXT).

PREV

Displays the storage associated with the next oldest entry in the current paperclip table (relative to the current position).

The following primary commands are used to process the paperclip from the memory display:

CLR

Command Type: Primary

The CLR command clears the current paperclip table by deleting all entries.

CMDLIST

Command Type: Primary

The CMDLIST command lists the commands that are available for execution from within Abend-AID.

A small subset of commands are always available, even when you have not selected an entry from the Abend-AID Directory. Additional commands become available after you select a non-CICS entry from the directory. Most commands, however, become available only after you select a CICS Transaction Server for z/OS or OS/390 entry from the directory.

The figure below is an example of the information displayed when you invoke the CMDLIST command. You can tab to any command and press Enter to display help for that command.

Command List Example

Example: CONTROL PAYTEST1

CORE

Command Type: Primary

The CORE command displays the storage found at the exact location specified. However, if you issue the CORE command without one of its optional parameters, Abend-AID for CICS displays the Storage Map Display screen. This screen lists in hexadecimal format all allocated and unallocated segments of storage for the current dump.

address

The address must be in hexadecimal.

symbolname

For region dumps only. The literal S/ must precede the symbol name.

tabletype tableentry

A space or a period separates the table type from the table entry, for example, PCTE CEMT or PCTE.CEMT. PCTE is the table type, and CEMT is the entry in the table.

Use field help to determine whether a field contains a table entry or a symbol.

Example 1: CORE 002744F0

Example 1 displays the storage at hexadecimal address 002744F0.

Example 2: CORE S/TCA0009

Example 2 displays the storage at symbol TCA0009.

CRETRIEV

Command Type: Primary

The CRETRIEV command functions differently depending on the position of the cursor when you enter the command.

If the cursor is in the COMMAND (or OPTION) field, CRETRIEV functions like the RETRIEVE command. That is, the most recently entered commands are redisplayed on the command line, one command at a time, in the reverse sequence in which they were entered (last-in, first-out). This command lets you easily recall a command for resubmission from the command line. You can edit the command before issuing it.

If the cursor is not in the COMMAND (or OPTION) field, CRETRIEV functions like the CURSOR command. That is, the cursor is moved to the first input field on the menu or screen being displayed, usually the COMMAND (or OPTION) field. When used in this way, CRETRIEV functions like a HOME key.
