Why even bother with COMMAND?

// VARY cuu,OFFLINE

works for me.
Hmph! I didn't know you could do that! Where is it documented?

It's "sort of" documented here (z/OS 1.7 MVS JCL Reference):

http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/BOOKS/IEA2B661/3.1

First entry in table 3.1 is an example.

Been working that way for at least a decade that I know about; only
"recently" (past 3 - 4 years) have I see our programmers start using the
COMMAND keyword.

Worked in OS/360 R19.6; that's where I first used it to vary tape drives offline/online.
