The first-level commands, displayed after entering SYSGEN, allow you to activate one of the four configurators (I/O, LOG, MISC, SYSFILE) or to keep, show, or clear changes made from the configurators. In addition, you can use first-level commands to call the SYSGEN help facility, alter basegroups, store configuration changes to tape, or exit the SYSGEN utility. Table 4-1 Using First-Level Commands describes the commands and their actions:
