<h1 class="topictitle1">Run commands with Management Central</h1>
<div><p>iSeries™ Navigator
enables you to define an action or a task and then perform that action or
task on multiple endpoint systems or system groups. These are the same commands
that you normally run using the character-based interface.</p>
<div class="section"><p>For example, you can use a command definition to do any of the
following tasks:</p>
<ul><li>Set network attributes on multiple endpoint systems or system groups</li>
<li>Set up your own help desk or operations "procedures book" to handle customer
and system needs.</li>
</ul>
<p>Any control language (CL) command that you can run in batch, you can
send to multiple systems at the same time. Create the command definition,
and then run the command on endpoint systems or system groups.</p>
To run a
command with Management Central, do the following:</div>
<ol><li><span>Expand <span class="menucascade"><span class="uicontrol">Management Central</span> &gt; <span class="uicontrol">Endpoint
System.</span></span></span></li>
<li><span>Right-click the endpoint system on which you want to run the command
and click <span class="uicontrol">Run Command</span>. For more information about this
window, click <span class="uicontrol">Help</span>.</span></li>
</ol>
<div class="section"><p>You can click <span class="uicontrol">Prompt</span> for assistance in
entering or selecting an i5/OS™ command. You can choose to run the command immediately
or schedule it to run at a later time.</p>
<div class="p">Starting with V5R3, the command
runs under the CCSID of the user profile that is submitting the command. If
the profile is set to 65535 ( or is set to *sysval, and the sysval is 65535),
it uses the default CCSID 37.<div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> Be sure that the command you specify is
supported by the release of i5/OS that is running on the target endpoint system.
For example, starting with V5R3 any outputs other than job logs that are produced
by a Run command are viewed by expanding the system under <span class="menucascade"><span class="uicontrol">My
Connections</span> &gt; <span class="uicontrol">Basic Output</span> &gt; <span class="uicontrol">Printer
Output</span></span>.</div>

<div><div class="section"><p>You can create a command definition to save a command that you
want to run over and over on multiple endpoint systems and system groups.
Storing a command definition on the central system allows you to share commonly
used or complex commands with other users. When a command is run from a definition,
a task is created. </p>
<p>To create a command definition, do the following:</p>
</div>
<ol><li><span>Expand <span class="menucascade"><span class="uicontrol">Management Central</span> &gt; <span class="uicontrol">Definitions</span></span>.</span></li>
<li><span>Right-click <span class="uicontrol">Command</span> and select <span class="uicontrol">New
Definition</span>.</span></li>
<li><span>The New Command Definition window opens. </span></li>
