Description

You can use the RUNCEMT command to issue a CEMT command in a CICS region.

The CICS BAC batch request utility writes up to 256 bytes of the data returned by the CICS region from the CEMT command to the print data set, CBKPRINT.

Parameters

CICS(applid)
Specifies the applid of the CICS region to which the CICS BAC batch request utility is to send the CEMT command. If you omit this option, the batch request utility routes the command to the default CICS region specified by the most recent DEFAULT command.
COMMAND(cemt_command_string)
You can specify up to 256 characters to make up the CEMT command string. Up to 256 bytes of data returned from the CEMT command are written to the CBKPRINT data set. Enter the command string exactly as you would enter it from a 3270 terminal. For example, RUNCEMT COMMAND(CEMT I FILE(FILEA)).
NOTACTIVE({CONTINUE | TERMINATE})
Specifies the action you want the CICS BAC batch request utility to take if the target CICS region is not available, or if the CICS BAC startup procedure has not been run in the region, as follows:
CONTINUE
Specify CONTINUE if you want the CICS BAC batch request utility to ignore the command and carry on processing the next command in the input data set.
TERMINATE
Specify TERMINATE if you want the CICS BAC batch request utility to terminate because of the failed command.
