9.1 Operations


This section describes how to run the VM Data Transfer
Program.  The VM Data Transfer Program is controlled
exclusively in CMS by three EXECs:

  o VMTPROF is a sample PROFILE EXEC that you should modify
    to suit your installation's requirements.

  o VMTWAITR waits for VM Account or Monitor reader files to
    be placed in the CMS reader and/or waits for CP SMSG
    commands issued from an authorized virtual machine.  This
    EXEC is a sample that you should modify to suit your
    installation's requirements.

  o VMTXMIT drives the setup of the environment for VMTXFR
    and calls VMTXFR to transfer data.

REQUIRED FILES

These files, required by the VMTXMIT EXEC, are used when
parameter options are set:

    ACCOUNT JCL     -  used when Account data is transferred
                       by VM Spool

    CAVMACT JCL     -  used when CA VM:Account data is
                       transferred by VM Spool

    MONXA JCL       -  used when VM Monitor data is
                       transferred by VM Spool

    NETDATA JCL     -  used when VM network data (NPM,
                       NetSpy, NET/MASTER, or NetView) is
                       transferred by VM Spool

    POWER JCL       -  used when VSE/POWER Account data is
                       transferred by VM Spool

    ERDS JCL        -  used when Error Recording data is
                       transferred by VM Spool

                       specified

REPORTS

The VM Data Transfer Program produces a report detailing the
activity of the transfer process.  This report can be written
to disk, print, or the terminal.  Parameters are available
that control the destination of the report.  See Chapter 7
for information about these parameters.
