STREAMS 

The STREAMS command enables or disables the streams device, which permits
or prohibits you from streaming jobs.  The system administrator enters
this command and STARTSPOOL LP after starting up the system to enable the
STREAM command.

Syntax 

STREAMS {ldev}
        {OFF }
Parameters 

ldev                  Specifies the logical device number of the streams
                      device.  The streams device must have an output
                      device number or class that references logical
                      devices of type 32.  You can use any input device
                      except the console or terminals.  The input device
                      must be configured in the SYSGEN dialog as capable
                      of accepting jobs.

OFF                   Disables the streams facility.

Operation Notes 

   *   Usage 

       You can enter this command from a session, a job, a program, or in
       break mode.  Pressing Break does not affect this command.  You can
       enter this command only from the console; however, you can enter
       this command from your terminal if your system administrator has
       used the ALLOW command to enable you to enter the command.

   *   Requirements 

       The system administrator must enable the streams device every time
       that the system is restarted in order to enable you to stream
       jobs.  If you attempt to stream a job when the streams facility is
       disabled, the following message appears:

            STREAM FACILITY NOT ENABLED: SEE OPERATOR. (CIERR 82)

   *   Selecting the streams device 

       The streams device is normally LDEV 10.  Your system administrator
       knows the LDEV for the streams device.

Examples 

   *   To enable jobs and data streams on logical device number 10,
       enter:

            :STREAMS 10 

   *   To disable data streams, enter:

            :STREAMS OFF
