Setting Strings and String Parameters 

The SYSTEM command (abbreviated SY) sets various strings and parameters.
SYSTEM has the following syntax:

     SYSTEM (SY)  [ [USERVERSION =] x.yy.zz]
                  [ [LOGONPROMPT =] prompt string]
                  [ [CIPROMPT =] prompt string]

The default for USERVERSION is A.21.00

The default for LOGONPROMPT is MPE XL:

The default for CIPROMPT is :  (a colon).

To set one of the parameters relating to the SYSTEM command, enter the
command and at least one parameter to change.  For example:

     misc>SYSTEM USERVERSION=A.A1.35  ** keyword ** 

     misc>SYSTEM A.A1.35 150     ** positional ** 

A changed system USERVERSION, like in the previous example, will be lost
if the MISC configurator information is saved to the group CONFIG.SYS.
The USERVERSION information is retained if it is saved to any group other
than CONFIG.SYS. To change system USERVERSION, generate a system load
tape (SLT) and update with it.
