Install the CA-GSS/ISERVE Operator Control Panel

CA‑GSS provides an ISPF-based control facility called the CA‑GSS/ISERVE Operator Control Panel that you can use to execute CA‑GSS commands from a terminal (rather than requiring access to a z/OS operator console.) These commands, which let you operate and monitor the CA‑GSS address space, can be directed to any CA‑GSS address space operating on the user's z/OS system. GoalNet permits commands to be issued to any GoalNet participant.

Results of these commands are displayed on the panel in full-screen mode so that you can scroll up and down through them. The results are not rolled off the screen, except when replaced with another command.

To install the CA-GSS/ISERVE operator control panel, invoke the CA‑GSS/ISERVE Operator Control Panel by issuing the GSSOPER command, or you can invoke it from an ISPF menu panel.

To invoke the panel from ISPF, add the following menu item to the panel and the PROC section for the appropriate ISPF panel:

ISRVO,'PGM(SRVOPER) NEWAPPL(mmmm) NOCHECK'

where mmmm is an arbitrary four-character ISPF application ID (such as OSRV).

Important! Use caution when modifying the ISPF primary menu panel. An error can prevent you from using ISPF. Always keep a backup member and a tested procedure that is independent of ISPF.
