Changing existing CAS definitions

To change an existing CAS definition, use the CHAnge command. Change can be used at any time while in edit mode. For more information about edit mode, see Editing-CAS-definitions. 

You modify the details of the selected CAS definition in the Change a CAS System Definition dialog.

To change a CAS definition

  1. From either the CASDEF or CASDEFD view, use the CHAnge command (refer to the command syntax below) to access the Change a CAS System Definition dialog.
  2. Modify the fields in the dialog as required.
  3. Use the END command, or its corresponding PF key, to save your changes, exit the dialog, and return to your view. The status field on the window information line is changed from (00 EDIT  ) to (00 EDIT  MOD   ). This indicates that the edit lock is still active but that the change has not yet been saved to the CAS definition member (the CAS definition member has been modified). To save the CAS definition member, see Saving-CAS-definitions.

Important

  • You can use z/OS system symbols (&SYSNAME, &SMFID, and so on) for the fields in the "Parmlib Suffix Information" and "Miscellaneous CAS Parameters" sections.

Command syntax

Depending on the view you are working from, use one of the following forms of the CHAnge command:

Primary command

You can use the Primary command from the COMMAND line in either the CASDEF or CASDEFD view.

  • CASDEF view
    CHA casname : Use casname to specify the CAS Definition you want to change. The Change a CAS System Definition dialog opens and displays the values of the specified definition.
  • CASDEFD view
    CHA: The Change a CAS System Definition dialog opens with the values of the CAS definition currently displayed in the CASDEFD view. 

Line command

For both views, the Change a CAS System Definition dialog opens with the values of the selected CAS definition. 

  • CASDEF view
    CHA: Enter under CMD, next to the CAS definition you want to change. 
  • CASDEFD view
    CHA: Enter next to CAS Name to change the CAS definition currently displayed in the view.
