SMDSCONN(qmgr-name | *): Specify the queue manager which owns the shared message data set for which the connection is to be started or an asterisk to start connections to all shared message data sets associated with the specified structure.

CFSTRUCT(structure-name)

CMDSCOPE

This parameter specifies how the command is executed when the queue manager is a member of a queue-sharing group.

' ': The command is executed on the queue manager on which it was entered. This is the default value.
qmgr-name: The command is executed on the queue manager you specify, providing the queue manager is active within the queue-sharing group.
You can specify a queue manager name, other than the queue manager on which the command was entered, only if you are using a queue-sharing group environment and if the command server is enabled.
*: The command is executed on the local queue manager and is also passed to every active queue manager in the queue-sharing group. The effect of this is the same as entering the command on every queue manager in the queue-sharing group.
