Starting the OSS Monitor
The SCF command:
INFO /OUT $S.#srv.info/ SERVER $ZPMON.*
returns descriptions of all the servers in the ZOSSSERV file.
The SCF command:
STATUS /OUT $S.#file.stat/ FILESET $ZPMON.*user*
and the SCF command:
STATUS /OUT $S.#file.stat/ FILESET $ZPMON.*USER*
both return the status of every fileset in the ZOSSFSET file that contains the string
“USER” in its name.
Creating Command Aliases
You can use the SCF ALIAS command to create aliases for OSS Monitor commands.
Such aliases can be similar to UNIX commands. For detailed information about the
SCF ALIAS command, see the SCF Reference Manual for G-Series RVUs or the SCF
Reference Manual for H-Series RVUs.
For example, you can create the alias DF for the STATUS FILESET command to
simulate the UNIX df command by doing the following at SCF prompts:

Characters Uses and Examples
* An asterisk represents any number of characters (including zero) in an entity
name. Use this character to save keystrokes when:
Entering a single name.
For example, you can enter RO* for ROOT.
Naming many entities at once.
For example, /us* matches /user1, /us, and /usr.
? A question mark represents any single character.
For example, h?p matches hop and hip, but not help.
[ ] Square brackets enclose a choice of characters you want to match. You can
specify a range of characters by separating them with a hyphen, with the
lower ASCII value to the left of the hyphen. Uppercase A has a lower ASCII
value than lowercase a, and there are characters between Z and a.
For example:
[Cc]hapter matches both Chapter and chapter.
[ch]apter matches both capter and hapter (but not chapter).
chapter[1-3] matches chapter1, chapter2, and chapter3.
