Defining FM/Db2 in an ISPF command table
ISPF supports four different command tables where you can define
an ISPF command to invoke FM/Db2:
- Application command table
- User command table
- Site command table
- System command table
You can use the ISPF Command Table Utility (ISPF option 3.9) to create or change a command table that is not currently in use (the system command table, ISPCMDS, is always in use). When you add a command for FM/Db2 to one of these command tables, you can invoke FM/Db2 from any ISPF panel without prefixing the command with TSO.
Add the following entry to a command table to enable FM/Db2 to be run from any ISPF panel by entering FD on the command line.
| Verb | FD |
| Action | SELECT PANEL(FMN2ST00) OPT(&ZPARM) SCRNAME(FMDB2) SUSPEND NEWAPPL(FMN2) |
| Description | File Manager for z/OS® Db2® Component |
To invoke FM/Db2 with LIBDEFs, see Example 2. ISPF command table with LIBDEF invocations.
