4.3.4.4 Operational Status and Tracking Commands


You will use Operational Status and Tracking commands to
request CA MICS operations and processing status services.

You can enter Operational Status and Tracking commands as
line commands or as primary commands.

  o Line commands are entered in the Cmd column and apply
    ONLY to the corresponding CA MICS unit database.

  o Primary commands are entered in the Command area at the
    top of the panel and can apply to one or more unit
    databases, with the exception of the INCRUPDT and
    SPLITSMF commands.  The INCRUPDT and SPLITSMF commands
    require the component as well as the database ID and
    therefore only support one component/database ID
    combination per execution of the command.

Detailed online tutorials document each command and the
panels the command displays.  The online tutorials describe
display content, usage considerations, and data entry
instructions.

Each command refreshes the Operational Status and Tracking
display.

You can also use standard CA MICS commands to subset the
Operational Status and Tracking display (SHOW command), find
a specific value in the display (FIND command), or position
to a row of the display (LOCATE).  See the online tutorials
for more information on primary command considerations and
syntax.

The Operational Status and Tracking commands are documented
in the sections that follow.  Command syntax is documented
below.


COMMAND SYNTAX

Enter Operational Status and Tracking commands in the Cmd
column (line commands) to request processing for a specific
unit database.  There are no line command parameters; simply
enter the command name.

Enter Operational Status and Tracking commands in the Command
area as follows:

command UNIT(S) dbidlist/ALL BACKUP/NOBACKUP EDIT/NOEDIT

where:

  o command  - The Operational Status and Tracking command
               name (for example, SCHEDULE).

  o UNIT(S)  - Optional keyword UNIT or UNITS to indicate
               that you are specifying one or more CA MICS
               unit database (DB) IDs for the command.

  o dbidlist - One or more CA MICS unit database (DB) IDs
               separated by blanks.  Command will be
               performed for each DB ID in the list.

    or

  o ALL      - Specify ALL instead of dbidlist if you want to
               perform the command for each production unit
               database.  ALL does NOT apply to TEST or
               SPECIAL unit databases.

               For example, enter SCHEDULE ALL to submit
               today's scheduled processing for all
               production unit databases.

               ALL will honor the display subset you define
               with the SHOW command.  For example, if
               several unit database updates failed
               overnight, you can use ALL to RESTART each of
               the failing processes.
                - Enter SHOW FAILED to subset the display.
                - Enter RESTART ALL to restart processing for
                  just the unit database updates that
                  failed.

  o BACKUP/NOBACKUP - Optional parameter for the SCHEDULE,
                      DAILY, WEEKLY, MONTHLY, and YEARLY
                      commands.

               Specify BACKUP with the SCHEDULE command to
               override the processing schedule and include a
               backup in the requested processing, even if no
               backup is currently scheduled.

               Specify NOBACKUP to omit backup processing
               even if normally included in the requested
               processing.  DAILY, WEEKLY, MONTHLY, and
               YEARLY will always include a backup unless you
               specify NOBACKUP.

               You can also specify NOBACKUP on the RESTORE
               command to override your
               prefix.MICS.PARMS(JCLDEF) specification of
               RESTORE BACKUP YES.  CA MICS will restore the
               database without a pre-restore unit database
               backup.

               Note:  You cannot override a RESTORE BACKUP NO
               specification in JCLDEF.  Do not specify
               BACKUP on the RESTORE command.

  o EDIT/NOEDIT - Optional parameter for the SCHEDULE, DAILY,
                  WEEKLY, MONTHLY, YEARLY, BACKUP, RESTORE,
                  RESTART, and RSTATUS commands.

               Specify EDIT to override your specification
               in the Edit JCL column and display each
               generated job under PDF Edit before submitting
               the job for batch execution.

               Specify NOEDIT to submit generated jobs
               without a pre-submit Edit, even if you
               specified YES in the Edit JCL column.
