CA MII Startup Activities

We strongly recommend that GDIF be started before any other products or subsystems that issue GDIF- managed ENQ requests because:

GDIF propagates all ENQ requests outstanding at startup time, but it cannot eliminate outstanding hardware reserves.
Neither GDIF nor EDIF can prevent damage from an outstanding integrity exposure.
We recommend that GDIF be started using the Early Start Mechanism which is outlined in the CA MIM Installation Guide.
