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) |
- Organization of this subsection
- (1) Operation commands supporting batch specification of RDAREA names
- (2) Notes
(1) Operation commands supporting batch specification of RDAREA names
The following operation commands support batch specification of RDAREA names:
- pdclose
- pddbfrz
- pddbls
- pdhold
- pdopen
- pdrels
- Do not specify an asterisk (*) at any location other than the beginning or end of a pattern character string. If an asterisk is specified at a location other than the beginning or end of a pattern character string, the system treats the asterisk as part of the character string.
- Do not include a percent sign (%) or underscore (_) in the pattern character string.
- To treat the pattern as being case sensitive, enclose the entire pattern character string in \". If the pattern character string is not enclosed in \", the system treats it as being all uppercase letters. Also, if the pattern character string contains a space, enclose the pattern character string in \".
- When there an RDAREA name is duplicated in the RDAREAs grouped by batch specification of RDAREA names and in the RDAREAs specified by another RDAREA name specification (including RDAREA names grouped by another batch specification of RDAREA names), whether or not the RDAREA is processed more than once depends on the command. The following table describes each command's processing when an RDAREA name is duplicated:
| 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 |

- Legend:
- Y: Eliminates a duplicated RDAREA name from processing.
- N: Does not eliminate any duplicated RDAREA names from processing; performs processing as many times as an RDAREA name is specified.
