You can use the methods described below to specify multiple RDAREA names in operation commands. These methods enable you to specify a group of RDAREAs.
Item | Pattern character string | Description | Example of specification |
---|---|---|---|
Right truncation | nnn* | The command searches for RDAREAs whose names begin with nnn. | PDUSER* (the command searches for RDAREAs whose names begin with PDUSER) |
Right and left truncation | *nnn* | The command searches for RDAREAs whose names contain nnn. | *PDUSER* (the command searches for RDAREAs whose names contain PDUSER) |
Left truncation | *nnn | The command searches for RDAREAs whose names end with nnn. | *PDUSER (the command searches for RDAREAs whose names end with PDUSER) |
The following operation commands support batch specification of RDAREA names:
Command | When multiple RDAREA name specifications contain a duplicate RDAREA | When there are duplicate RDAREAs in the RDAREAs grouped by batch specification of RDAREA names and in the RDAREAs specified by another RDAREA name specification | |
