Starting a BBI-SS PAS before JES (BMC AMI Ops Automation only) - Documentation for BMC AMI Ops Infrastructure 7.1

RECFM=VBA,LRECL=125,BLKSIZE=1632,DSORG=PS

Make each one large enough to accommodate the largest dump that you expect.

Add the following allocations to your BBI-SS PAS JCL, pointing to the dump data sets that were created in the previous step.

//BBDUMP01 DD DISP=SHR,DSN=dumpdsn1,VOL=SER=....,UNIT=....
//BBDUMP02 DD DISP=SHR,DSN=dumpdsn2,VOL=SER=....,UNIT=....
//BBDUMP03 DD DISP=SHR,DSN=dumpdsn3,VOL=SER=....,UNIT=....
//SYSTSIN DD DUMMY
//SYSTSPRT DD DUMMY

Important

The SYSTSIN and SYSTSPRT DD statements are required for IBM REXX support.

To specify the JES type, use the JESTYPE= keyword in the BBISSPxx parameter library member (for more information, see BBISSPxx parameters for BMC AMI Ops Automation).

The default is JES2. If the default is used on a JES3 system, event types EOS, EOM, and TLM will not function correctly and will not trigger any rules of these types.

S SSJCL. id,SUB=MSTR

The BBI-SS PAS opens the first dump data set when the BBI-SS PAS starts. This data set closes and the next one opens after an abend occurs. When the last one is opened and used, it is reopened and reused over and over until dumps are reset by using the BBI control command .RESET DUMP. You can issue this command from a terminal session, the system console, or an EXEC in the standard BBI command format.

Important

The terminal session can be started only after JES has initialized. Alternate Accessshould be used for the UAS until after JES has started.

Make sure that RTCS is active for BMC AMI Ops Automation to load Rule Sets from Rules Management by using the AAOPLXxx parameter member to specify the following:
USAGE_MODE_RULES=ADMIN | FULL
In both the following examples even though BMC AMI Ops Automation and RTCS starts together, BMC AMI Ops Automation will wait for RTCS to finish initializing before proceeding.

Example 1

Using z/OS to start RTCS

In the COMMNDxx PARMLIB member, start RTCS before OpsA by using the following commands:

• S OSZINIT.RTCS,SUB=MSTR
• S SSJCL.id,SUB=MSTR

Example 2

Using BMC AMI Ops Automation for z/OS to start RTCS

In the AAOPRMxx parameter member, specify the following:

RTCSCMD=S OSZINIT.RTCS,SUB=MSTR

In the COMMNDxx PARMLIB member, specify the following:
S SSJCL.id,SUB=MSTR
