+----------+------------------------------------------------------------------+
where:

ACNT ON | OFF
         controls whether accounting information is displayed at the terminal
         or not (ON and OFF, respectively) when the operator issues the CP ACNT
         command.  When you log on VM/370, ACNT is set on.

ECmode ON | OFF
         controls whether the virtual machine operating system may use
         System/370 extended control mode and control registers 1 through 15.
         Control register 0 may be used with ECMODE either ON or OFF.  When you
         log on VM/370, ECMODE is set according to the user's directory option;
         ON if ECMODE was specified and OFF if not.

         Note:  Execution of the SET ECMODE <ON OFF> command always causes a
         virtual system reset.  Setting ECMODE does not change the PSW EC mode
         bit.

IMSG ON | OFF
         controls whether certain informational responses issued by the CP
         CHANGE, DEFINE, DETACH, ORDER, PURGE, and TRANSFER commands are
         displayed at the terminal or not.  The descriptions of these CP
         commands tell which responses are affected.  If ON is specified the
         informational responses are displayed.  If OFF is specified, they are
         not.  The SET IMSG ON or OFF command line has no effect on the
         handling of error messages set by the SET EMSG command.  When you log
         on to VM/370, IMSG is set ON.

ISAM ON | OFF
         controls whether additional checking is performed on virtual I/O
         requests to DASD in order to support the OS Indexed Sequential Access
         Method (ISAM).  When you log on VM/370, ISAM is set according to the
         user's directory options; ON if ISAM was specified and OFF if not.

LINEDit ON | OFF
         controls the line editing functions.  ON specifies that the line
         editing functions and the symbols of the VM/370 system are to be used
         to edit virtual processor console input requests.  This establishes
         line editing features in systems that do not normally provide them.
         OFF specifies that no character or line editing is to be used for the
         virtual machine operating system.  When you log on VM/370, LINEDIT is
         set on.

MSG ON | OFF
         controls whether messages sent by the MSG command from other users are
         to be received at the terminal.  If ON is specified, the messages are
         displayed.  If OFF is specified, no messages are received.  In
         addition to controlling messages generated by the MESSAGE command,
         spooling messages generated by users sending punch, printer or reader
         files to another virtual machine are also suppressed if OFF is
         specified.  When you log on VM/370, MSG is set on.

NOTRans ON | OFF
         controls CCW translation for CP.  NOTRANS can be specified only by a
         virtual machine that occupies the virtual=real space.  It causes all
         virtual I/O from the issuing virtual machine to bypass the CP CCW
         translation except under the following conditions:
         o   SIO tracing active
         o   First CCW not in the V=R region
         o   I/O operation is a sense command
         o   I/O device is a dial-up terminal
         o   I/O is for a non-dedicated device
         o   Pending device status
         Any of the above conditions forces CCW translation.

         To be in effect in the virtual=real environment, SET NOTRANS ON must
         be issued after the virtual=real machine is loaded via the IPL
         command.  (IPL sets the NOTRANS option to an OFF condition.)

PAGEX ON | OFF
         controls the pseudo page fault portion of the VM/VS handshaking
         feature.  PAGEX ON or OFF should only be issued for a virtual machine
         that has the VM/VS handshaking feature active.  It can only be
         specified for a virtual machine that has the extended control mode
         (ECMODE) option.  PAGEX ON sets on the pseudo page fault portion of
         handshaking; PAGEX OFF sets it off.  When you log on to VM/370, PAGEX
         is set OFF.  Also, each time you IPL your virtual machine, PAGEX is
         set off.  If you want to use the pseudo page fault handling portion of
         handshaking, you must issue SET PAGEX ON after you load your operating
         system.

RUN ON | OFF
         controls whether the virtual machine stops when the attention key is
         pressed.  ON allows you to activate the attention key (causing a read
         of a CP command) without stopping your virtual machine.  When the CP
         command is entered, it is immediately executed and the virtual machine
         resumes execution.  OFF places the virtual machine in the normal CP
         environment, so that when  the attention key is pressed, the virtual
         machine stops.  When you log on VM/370, RUN is set off.

WNG ON | OFF
         controls whether warning messages are displayed at the terminal.  If
         ON is specified, all warning messages sent via the CP WARNING command
         from the system operator are received at the terminal.  If OFF is
         specified, no warning messages are received.  When you log on to
         VM/370, WNG is set ON.

EMSG ON | OFF | CODE | TEXT
         controls error message handling.  ON specifies that both the error
         code and text are displayed at the terminal.  OFF specifies that no
         error message is to be displayed.  CODE specifies that only the error
         code is be displayed.  TEXT specifies that only text is displayed.
         When you log on to VM/370, EMSG is set to TEXT.

         If the console is being spooled for error messages from CP, the OFF
         setting is ignored for the spooled output and the full error message
         appears in the spooled output.  The other three settings result in
         spooled output that matches the console printout.

         It is the responsibility of the operating system running under CP to
         determine whether or not its own error messages will honor the EMSG
         setting in the spooled output.

         Note:  CMS always recognizes EMSG settings for all error (E),
         information (I), and warning (W) messages, but ignores the EMSG
         setting and displays the complete message (error code and text) for
         all response (R), severe error (S), and terminal (T) messages.  Also,
         data written by means of type in, such as a list of names following a
         message, are not controlled by the EMSG operand.

TIMER ON | OFF | REAL
         controls the virtual timer.  ON specifies that the virtual timer is to
         be updated only when the virtual processor is running.  OFF specifies
         that the virtual timer is not to be updated.  REAL specifies that the
         virtual timer is to be updated during virtual CPU run time and also
         during virtual wait time.  If the REALTIMER option is specified in
         your VM/370 directory entry, TIMER is set to REAL when you log on;
         otherwise it is set to ON when you log on.

ASsist OFF | [ON] [SVC | NOSVC]
         all functions of SET ASSIST operands pertain to VM/370 hardware
         assist.  VM/370 hardware assist consists of processor hardware that
         assists the processor in the execution of certain instructions, series
         of instructions, privileged operations, and interrupt processing that
         are normally handled by the control program portion of VM/370.

         All, some, or none of the function performed by VM/370 hardware assist
         may be available on the processor that the virtual machine is logged
         on.  If the user requests VM/370 hardware assist and it is available
         and active, the request is honored; if VM/370 hardware assist is not
         active but is available and the user attempts to enable hardware
         assist, the virtual machine remembers the enabling attempt and an
         appropriate message is sent to the user.  When the system operator
         enables hardware assist, it is immediately utilized by the virtual
         machine.  In the event that hardware assist is not available or active
         on the system, an appropriate error message is issued.

PFnn  [DELayed | IMMED] [pfdata1#pfdata2#...]
         defines a program function for a program function key on a 3270
         Display station and indicates when that function is to be executed.
         If PFnn is specified with no operands, that program function key is
         considered "undefined."  See the VM/370 Terminal User's Guide for a
         description of how to use the 3270 program function keys.

         nn      is a number from 1 (or 01) to 24 that corresponds to a key on
                 a 3270 display station.  The program function is a
                 programming capability you create by defining a series of
                 VM/370 commands or data you want executed.  This series of
                 commands is executed when you press the appropriate program
                 function key.

         IMMED   specifies that the program function is executed immediately
                 after you press the program function key.

         DELAYED specifies that execution of the program function is delayed
                 for a display terminal.  When the program function is entered,
                 it is displayed in the input area and not executed until you
                 press the Enter key.  DELAYED is the default value for display
                 terminals.

         pfdata1#pfdata2#...
                 defines the VM/370 command or data lines that constitute the
                 program function.  If more than one command line is to be
                 entered, the pound sign (#) must separate the lines.  If you
                 use the pound sign (#) to separate commands that you want
                 executed with the designated PF key, you must precede the
                 command line with #CP, turn line editing off, or precede each
                 pound sign with the logical escape character (").  If no
                 command lines are entered following the PFnn designation, then
                 the program function is marked undefined.  Program functions
                 cannot be embedded within one another.

PFnn RECALL | RETRIEVE
         specifies that the program function key numbered nn carries out the
         RETRIEVE function on a 3270 display terminal.  The number of the PF
         key, nn, can be a value from 1 (or 01) to 24.

         Once you have defined a RETRIEVE program function key, CP begins
         saving your input lines.  When you press the designated PF key, VM/370
         displays either the most recently saved input line so that you can
         modify and reenter the data.  When you first press the RETRIEVE
         program function key, VM/370 displays the most current input line.  If
         you press the key again, VM/370 displays the previous input line.
         Each time you press the key, VM/370 scrolls through the input lines,
         retrieving older input lines, and displaying them one at a time.
         After VM/370 reaches the oldest line stored, it returns to the most
         current line once again.

PFnn [TAB n1 n2 ...]
         specifies a program function key number to be associated with tab
         settings on a terminal.  The number of the PF key, nn, can be a value
         from 1 (or 01) to 24.  TAB is a keyword identifying the tab function.
         The tab settings (n1 n2 ...) may be entered in any sequence:
            SET PF09 TAB 20 30 40
         defines tab settings on columns 20, 30, and 40 of your command line.

PFnn [COPY [cuu | resid]]
         specifies that the program function key numbered nn performs a COPY
         function for a remote 3270 Information Display terminal.  The number,
         nn, must be a value from 1 (or 01) to 24.  The COPY function produces
         a printed output of the entire screen display at the time the PF key
         is pressed.  The output is printed on an IBM printer connected to the
         same control unit as your display terminal; if no printer is
         connected, the copy function is not available.

         cuu     represents the real hardware address of the display printer,
                 and may specify a printer that is on a different control unit
                 than the one to which your 3270 is attached.  If you do not
                 specify cuu, the printer with the lowest cuu that is available
                 on the same control unit as your 3270 is selected.

         resid   may be specified if more than one printer is connected to the
                 same control unit as your display terminal.  It is a two-
                 character hexadecimal resource identification number assigned
                 to a specific printer.  If resid is entered, the printed copy
                 is directed to a specific printer; if not, the copy is printed
                 on the printer with the lowest resid number.  The resid
                 numbers of the printers available to your display terminal can
                 be obtained from your system operator.  If only one printer is
                 available, as with the 3275 Display Station, resid need not be
                 specified.

   vaddr     is the virtual address to which the line is attached.
   raddr     is the real address of the line.

QUERY VIRTUAL STORAGE

STORAGE = nnnnnK
   The size of the virtual machine in multiples of 1024 bytes is displayed.

QUERY VIRTUAL TAPES

TAPE vaddr ON DEV raddr
   The status of each tape drive defined for your system is displayed, where:
   vaddr     is the virtual address to which the tape is attached.
   raddr     is the real address of the tape.

QUERY VIRTUAL UR

RDR vaddr CL c CONT ¦ NOCONT  HOLD ¦ NOHOLD  EOF ¦ NOEOF  READY ¦ NOTREADY
   The status of all the virtual readers attached to your virtual machine is
   displayed, where:
   vaddr    is the virtual device address of the virtual reader.
   c        is the spool class which the device services.  A class of *
            indicates the device services all classes of spool files for input.
   The other fields indicate the settings of the respective options in the
   SPOOL command.  The default settings for a reader are:
   RDR vaddr CL * NOCONT NOHOLD READY EOF

PRT ¦ PUN vaddr CL c CONT ¦ NOCONT  HOLD ¦ NOHOLD  COPY nn  READY ¦ NOTREADY
          vaddr TO ¦ FOR userid  DIST distcode
   The status of all the virtual printers and punches attached to your virtual
   machine is displayed, where:
   vaddr    is the virtual device address of the virtual printer or punch.
   c        is the output class assigned to spool files produced from the
            device.
   nn       is the number of copies of each output file to be produced.
   TO userid
            indicates that the output from the device, when closed, becomes a
            reader input spool file for the indicated userid.
   FOR userid
            indicates the user identification (spool file owner) assigned to
            spool files produced from the device.
   distcode is the distribution code assigned to each spool file produced from
            the device.  Note:  the distcode in this case indicates the FOR
            userid; however, the distcode produced on the output file when the
            file is close is the distcode assigned to the FOR userid as
            specified in the VM/370 directory.
   The other fields indicate the settings of the respective options in the
   SPOOL command.  The default settings are:
   PRT ¦ PUN vaddr CL A NOCONT NOHOLD COPY 01 READY
             vaddr FOR userid  DIST distcode    FLASHC 00
             vaddr FLASH     CHAR     MDFY       FCB

QUERY VIRTUAL vaddr

The response is in the same format as QUERY VIRTUAL DASD, TAPES, LINES or UR,
depending on the virtual device type.
