"D OPDATA" only shows those command prefixes from software that
participate by using the CPF services - in essence it is a gentleman's
agreement as any software that has a active subsystem that has a
function that responds to SSI broadcast 10 (System command) can
implement its own command recognition schema.  

The CPF services are a fairly recent (ahem) addition and some legacy
software may not have been updated to use CPF to register the prefixes. 

The software may also choose not to participate for the
vendors/developers own reasons or because their customers have not
requested it.

Well Ted, that's what I was thinking.  It's defined there for DB2 on my
test system LPAR, but does NOT show up via 'D OPDATA'.....so go figure?!

Someone else posted that each product does it in its own way and in
different places, like;  JES2 in its parms, OPS/MVS in its parms, RACF
in IEFSSNxx, etc.  But since DB2 is defined in my test system LPAR in
IEFSSNxx, I'd think it would show up in 'D OPDATA'?!

Unless there's some sort of DB2 database voodoo incantation that needs
to be performed?!

Any thoughts.....one and all??
