ctmshtb

The ctmshtb utility specifies the active Shout Destination folder.

You can add, delete, and modify Shout Destination folders using the ctmsys utility, described in ctmsys. The ctmsys utility can also be used to specify the active Shout Destination folder interactively.

The Shout Destination folder associates physical output destinations with logical destination names. The names are specified in Shout and Do Shout statements in job processing definitions and in the ctmshout utility. For more information, see Shout destination management.

By defining Control‑M jobs that execute this utility at specified times, the active Shout Destination folder designation can be changed automatically according to the schedule that suits your installation.
