Plan the MIMQNAME Member

You can use the MIMQNAME member of the CA MIM parameter data set to define which resources GDIF/ECMF manage, or do not manage. The CA MIM parameter library contains two sample members: MIMQNAME and MIMQNAMS. MIMQNAME is designed for clients running with GDIINIT PROCESS=ALLSYSTEMS (recommended). The MIMQNAMS member is designed for customers running with GDIINIT PROCESS=SELECT, which we do not recommend. However, it is still the default value. The MIMQNAME and MIMQNAMS members are updated with each CA MIM release.

If you are installing CA MII for the first time, and are converting from another vendor's global ENQ serialization package, we recommend that you contact CA Technical Support for assistance with the conversion.

If you are installing CA MII for the first time, and are new to sharing DASD across multiple systems, we recommend that you run with GDIINIT PROCESS=ALLSYSTEMS and to use the sample MIMQNAME member. CA Technical Support can assist with setting up the various MIM parmlib members to help ensure the highest level of availability from the beginning.

The MIMQNAME and MIMQNAMS sample members are designed for sites who are fully sharing all DASD, security databases, tape managements systems, and so on, across all systems. If you have a configuration where not all DASD/databases/subsystems are to be shared, then you may need to adjust these sample members for your site. We strongly recommend that you contact CA Technical Support for assistance.
