Using a TSO/E command

A command consists of a command name typically followed by one or more operands. Operands provide the specific information required to perform the requested operation. For example, operands for the RENAME command identify the data set you want to rename:

RENAME OLDNAME NEWNAME

command name

operand_1
(old data set name)

operand_2
(new data set name)

You can use two types of operands with the commands: positional and keyword.
