4.3.4 Operational Status and Tracking


Operational Status and Tracking provides online access to the
CA MICS operational jobs and to CA MICS Database status. You
can use Operational Status and Tracking to:

o  Interrogate Database status and/or processing history.

o  Submit regularly scheduled production CA MICS processing.

o  Perform special CA MICS processing, including Database
   recovery and production job restart.

o  Suspend Database update processing while you apply
   maintenance.

Note:  Operational Status and Tracking does not support
       CA MICS incremental update facilities.  This means
       that you can NOT submit INCRnnn jobs through
       Operational Status and Tracking facilities, and the
       Operational Status and Tracking commands do NOT
       support the incremental update checkpoint files.

       However, FORCE and SELECT specifications established
       through the Operational Status and Tracking FORCE
       command ALSO APPLY to Incremental Update SPLITSMF and
       INCRccc job processing.

Operational Status and Tracking presents a scrollable status
display of the unit databases in your CA MICS complex. You
can scroll RIGHT to display the CA MICS processing schedule
and Operational Status and Tracking parameters.

Online tutorials provide detailed documentation on display
content, commands, usage considerations, and data entry
instructions.
