NOACT – Peform no action

The main purpose of the NOACT command is to be a null action for complex IF expressions where the action you really want is the ELSE condition.

The NOACT command has no arguments, does nothing and always ends with return code zero.

For example:
IF (@CMD(CHK1.EQ.0)) & (@CMD(CHK2.EQ.0)) THEN NOACT
ELSE SENDMSG T(Something failed) U(ADCDMST)
Note: The NOACT statement performs no action at all, but accepts further text following the command. Therefore, you can use NOACT as a testing or diagnostic aid to see the value of variables being resolved at that point:
08/21 14.48.03 EQQI200I NOACT !_LSTAT1_CPOPERR
08/21 14.48.03 EQQI201I NOACT SB37
08/21 14.48.03 EQQI299I Statement completed - RC=0 (00000012)
