Define Message Tables for CA-L-Serv

A message table contains definitions of the messages that are issued by CA-L-Serv or one of its client applications. The definitions include the message number, message text, symbolic variables, and standard z/OS routing and descriptor codes.

The CAW0OPTN member LSERVMSG, which is downloaded at installation time, contains the definitions of messages necessary for CA-L-Serv processing.

CA-L-Serv may use additional message tables to issue messages on behalf of any client application that sends a message request to CA-L-Serv. See the installation and configuration documentation for the associated product for specific information concerning its implementation and use of CA-L-Serv messaging services.

Note: The message table for an associated product can be copied either to the CA-L-Serv CAW0OPTN data set or to any data set included in the concatenation for the //LDMCMND DD statement in the CA-L-Serv startup procedure.
