How You Define IBM or other ISV ENQ Management Definitions to CA MII

If you have installed a new IBM or ISV product that issues ENQs or hardware reserves, you should read that product's documentation or contact Technical Support to determine whether CA MII should manage that product's ENQs.

CA delivers ENQ management recommendations for many IBM and ISV products in our sample MIMQNAME, MIMQNAMS, and GDIEXMPT parmlib members. The ENQ management and exemptions statements shown in these samples are what most large scale sites run with, but you may need to customize them for your site.

Based on our experience involving thousands of sites, we have consolidated what we know as general best practice recommendations into our sample CA MII members. You may want to contact the vendor of a product that is generating a given ENQ.

For assistance in evaluating your ENQ workload to determine the optimal specifications for your DASD-sharing MIIplex, contact CA MIM Technical Support.
