Console Communication Facility

CA IDMS/DB Reorg provides a Console Communication Facility that allows you to monitor the reorganization from the operator console and TSO terminals. The facility is established through an CA IDMS/DB Reorg parameter and controlled by issuing dynamic commands at the operator console. The parameter gives you the ability to request that CA IDMS/DB Reorg status be displayed at specified intervals, at the end of each step, or on demand. You can also turn off the communication facility.

The Communication Commands allow you to view the status, to stop or cancel the reorganization process, and to change the frequency of the interval at which the status is displayed. The Console Communication Facility and its commands are covered in detail in Console Communications Facility.
