Reduce CA LMP Console Messages

CA LMP issues messages when processing product execution keys. If you do not want these messages to go to the console, you can reroute the messages to an external flat file using a SYSPRINT DD statement. Error messages and messages that require manual intervention still go to the console.

To reduce the number of key processing messages that are routed to the console, add a SYSPRINT DD statement to the CAS9 procedure.

The data set defined by SYSPRINT is a standard sequential data set or a JES2 sysout data set. The DCB attributes are fixed for 80-byte unblocked records and cannot be overridden with JCL, which means that the DCB must be (LRECL=80,BLKSIZE=80,RECFM=F).

Note: If the SYSPRINT ddname is not suitable, you can nominate another ddname for the flat file through the SYSPDDNM subparameter in the EXEC statement of the CAS9 procedure. For example, the following statement nominates SYSLIST as the ddname and you can reroute CA LMP messages by specifying a SYSLIST DD statement:

//CAIRIM   EXEC PGM=CAIRIM,PARM='SYSPDDNM(SYSLIST),¼'

Optionally Turn Off CAS9115I Messages

CAIRIM issues CAS9115I messages for each RIMPARM statement and each LMP statement that is read in. You can optionally turn off the CAS9115I messages.

To turn off the RIMPARM CAS9115I messages, add the following statement as the first statement in the RIMPARM member in column 1:

ECHO=NO

To turn off LMP CAS9115I messages, add the following statement as the first statement in the LMP member in column 1:

ECHO=NO

If you want to turn on CAS9115I messages from a specific point forward, add the following statement at that point in the LMP or RIMPARM statement member:

ECHO=YES
