Commands and keywords supported by the OM API
Some IMS™ commands are supported by the OM API.
The following table is a list of IMS command verbs and primary keywords that can be issued through the Operations Manager (OM) API. The command verb can be specified in the long form or short form, as specified in columns one and two. The primary keyword is the first keyword that follows the command verb, as specified in column three.
Restriction: The OM API supports only the short
form of the keywords that are described in the following table. For
example, the keyword ACTIVE (used on the /BROADCAST command)
has a short form of ACT. The OM API supports only the ACT keyword,
not ACTIVE.
