Hi Scott This looks like what I’m after (thank you Skylar and all others who responded too!)
For the uninitiated, what exactly is a User Exit in the context of the following line: “One way to automate this collection of GPFS configuration data is to use a User Exit. “ Or to put it another way, what is calling the script to be run on the basis of running mmchconfig someparam=someval? I’d like to understand it more.
