•
Online help is available for all ASAP commands and options. In ASAP, enter HELP
command.
•
To delimit an end-of-line comment, use the exclamation point (!) before the
comment.
•
To execute a command, enter enough characters to uniquely identify that
command. For example, to execute the STATUS command, enter STAT. STA alone
cannot be distinguished from the STARTUP command.
•
To continue a command on a subsequent line, end the current line with the
ampersand (&) character and enter the remaining portion of the command on the
following line. The ASAP CI prompt changes to +& to indicate that it is operating in
continuation mode. For example:
+SET DISK OBJECT &
+&$SYSTEM.SYSTEM.ASAPDSK, PARAMETERS “RATE 10”
