7.2.1 Component Options (VMCOPS)

The CA MICS Analyzer Option for VM/CMS options member
(VMCOPS) is read by the parameter generation routine,
VMCPGEN. VMCPGEN builds the master macros and stores them in
prefix.MICS.USER.SOURCE(#VMCMSTR).

Operational statements are stored in the prefix.MICS.PARMS
cccOPS member, where ccc is the component identifier, and are
incorporated into the CA MICS system by running the
prefix.MICS.CNTL(cccPGEN) job.

The VMCOPS member defines the characteristics of input data,
identifies the JCL reference to the input data, specifies the
number of work data sets to be used, and designates specific
action that the daily format routine should take when there
is no match of CPU model or serial numbers.  The following
list contains the statements that can be coded in the VMCOPS
member:


Required Statements
-------------------

OPTIONS
ALTCPU

The following statements are required, depending on what
data is being processed.

MON
ACT
VMACCT

Optional Statements
-------------------

COMMON
SPIN
VERIFY
WORK
MULTWORK|NOMULT
RESTART
INCRUPDATE

A worksheet for recording the parameter values for the VMCOPS
member is supplied in Figure 7-4.
