This command defines the CICSPlex SM context and scope for subsequent commands issued by an API processing thread.
The specified context remains in effect for the thread until you override it or change it on a subsequent command.
The SCOPE option qualifies the CONTEXT option. When the context is a CICSplex, the scope can be:
When the context is a CMAS, this option has no meaning and is ignored.
The specified scope remains in effect for the thread unless you override it for a specific command or change it by issuing another QUALIFY command. If you do not specify the SCOPE option, no scope value is assumed (that is, the default scope established for the thread by the CONNECT command is not retained).
The following is a list of the RESPONSE values that can be returned by the QUALIFY command. The description of each RESPONSE includes a list of associated REASON values, if appropriate.
