Exiting the dialog

z/OS DFSMSrmm Managing and Using Removable Media
SC23-6873-00

You can stop your DFSMSrmm session in one of these ways:
  • Quick Exiting
    To completely exit the dialog, either:
    • Type =X on the command or option line of any panel and press ENTER.

      or

    • Type X on the primary option menu and press ENTER.

    You exit without specifying options for processing saved requests, and the data set containing any saved commands is available outside the dialog.

  • Exiting One Panel at a Time

    Use the END command or press the PF3 (END) function key from any panel to exit the dialog one panel at a time. If you used fast path commands to request several panels consecutively, you will return to those panels before exiting the dialog.

  • Exiting to Process Saved Requests

    Use the RETURN command or press PF4 to see the initial selection panel that appeared when you invoked DFSMSrmm. By default, this is the DFSMSrmm primary option menu. If you issued a fast path command before using RETURN or PF4, DFSMSrmm returns you to the panel from which you issued the fast path command.

    Use the END command or press PF3 to exit the dialog from the initial selection panel and go to the Exit Menu, as Figure 1 shows.

    The Exit Menu presents you with options for handling the data set in which DFSMSrmm saves your commands. You can use this menu if you issued the SAVE ON command or used background processing for your session on the DFSMSrmm Dialog User Options panel, and DFSMSrmm saved at least one command during your session.

     Command ===>
    
       B - Browse Data Set                    D - Delete Data Set
       E - Edit Data Set                      K - Keep Data Set
       R - Rename Data Set                    S - Submit batch job
       X - Execute in foreground
    
     Commands have been saved in Data Set:
    
     Data Set name  . . . : 'RMML06.RMM0.LIST'
    
     Specify new Data set name, if "R" selected:
    
     New Data Set name  . .
    
     Job Statement Information:
      ===>//*
      ===>//*
      ===>//*
      ===>//*
     Press ENTER to Process request, or END command to Exit,

    From the Exit Menu you can browse, edit, rename, delete or keep the data set containing your saved requests. You can also choose to process these requests in the foreground or you can submit a batch job.

    To submit a batch job, perform these steps:

    1. Enter the job statement information on the panel:
      • Include any job parameters necessary to your installation.
      • Enter //* as the first three characters for any unused job statement information lines.
    2. Press ENTER to submit your job.
    If you decide to defer submitting your job, use the PF3(END) key to leave the Exit Menu. DFSMSrmm saves the data set containing your requests with a name in this format:
    <tso prefix>.RMMnn.LIST

    where nn is a two-digit number of an ISPF logical screen. For example, a possible data set name for user WOOD could be WOOD.RMM10.LIST. Write the necessary JCL to create the job stream and submit the job outside the dialog.
