Pipeline Stages and Syntax
Table 2. Stages of the PIPE Command (continued)
Stage Name Task Performed Synonym Page
DROP Specifies the number of messages to be discarded from the
pipeline.
DROP 72
DUPLICAT Copies messages in the input stream. DUP 74
EDIT Creates or reformats messages. EDIT 76
ENVDATA Outputs environment data. ENV 121
EXPOSE Causes messages to be exposed for automation and logging. EXPOSE 123
FANIN Merges multiple input streams, in stream order, into a single
output stream.
FANIN 125
FANINANY Merges multiple input streams, preserving the message order,
into a single output stream.
FANINANY 127
FANOUT Passes a single input stream to multiple output streams. FANOUT 129
FMTPACKT Takes raw TCPIP packet data, converts it into readable form,
and generates reports that are passed to the primary output
stream.
FMT 131
HELDMSG Reads a copy of the held messages queue into the pipeline. HELD 136
HOLE Discards the contents of the pipeline. Determines whether a
command has correlated output.
HOLE 138
INSTORE Adds, deletes, or replaces in-storage members. INSTORE 140
INTERPRT Builds and runs stages from input command data. Facilitates
long pipe commands.
INT 143
JOINCONT Joins consecutive messages that match a specified string. JOINCONT 147
KEEP Defines a task global place to store messages. KEEP 150
LITERAL Inserts text into the pipeline. LIT 154
LOCATE Selects messages that match a specified character string to
remain in the pipeline.
LOC 155
LOGTO Sends a copy of the contents of the pipeline to a specific log. LOG 157
LOOKUP Matches data within a pipeline. LOOKUP 159
MEMLIST Creates a list of members in one or more partitioned data sets
(PDS) or data definitions (DD).
MEML 163
MVS Runs specified MVS commands. MVS 165
NETVIEW Runs specified NetView commands. NETV 167
NLOCATE Discards messages that match a specified character string. NLOC 171
NLS Converts input messages to their translated versions. NLS 173
NOT Changes the way output is treated by those stages that
discard part of their output.
NOT 175
NPDAEVD Outputs NPDA event-detailed text messages and
recommended actions.
NPDAEVD 177
PERSIST Specifies the disposition for correlated output after a pipeline
ends.
PERSIST 179
PICK Selects messages to remain in the pipeline based on a
comparison of two strings.
PICK 182
PIPEND Causes a pipeline to end and return a return code. PIPEEND 185
PPI Passes data to a PPI receiver. PPI 187
