Limiting the use of TSO/E commands

You may want to limit the use of TSO/E commands at your installation. For example, you may want to limit certain commands to conserve resources, such as spool space. You can restrict the TSO/E commands users can use from:

READY mode TSO/E
The TSO/E Session Manager
Background mode
ISPF/PDF panels

Table 1 lists the commands you can limit from each environment and the functions you can use to limit the commands.
