RECALL/CtrlA RECALL

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 the RECALL command only if your system administrator has used the ALLOW command or ASSOCIATE command which permits you to enter this command.

Differences between RECALL and CtrlA RECALL

Both of these commands function identically except that you can enter CtrlA RECALL only from the console and not from a job or program. The = sign appears when you press CtrlA.

Pressing these keys enables you to enter certain commands on a console from which another process (such as STORE) is currently running. You should only use the CtrlA RECALL command if the RECALL command cannot be used.
