Using the CBFORMAT command to display JES2 control blocks

You can use the CBFORMAT command to display the control blocks in Table 1 (using the STRUCTURE(structurename) parameter to specify the structure).

Note: In some cases, the structure name is actually the name of a DSECT within a macro (preceded by the ‘$’ symbol). For example, $BERTIE corresponds to the BERTIE DSECT within the $BERT macro. In most cases, the structure name and the macro name are the same.
