How You Dynamically Change CA MIM Communication Methods

Global ENQ response time is dependent on the CA MIM communication method. As a z/OS systems programmer, using an alternate method can improve response time. By supporting dynamic configuration changes, you can more easily try different configurations and measure the results.

The following is a list of supported dynamic procedures.

• Activate XCF Communication when COMMUNICATION=DASDONLY
  • Revert to the Original Communication Method
• Activate List Structures when COMMUNICATION=XCF or CTCONLY
  • Revert to the Original List Structures
• Activate XCF Communication on a Subset of Systems
  • Revert to CTC Communication
• Add a System to the MIMplex when COMMUNICATION=CTCDASD
  • Revert to the Original MIMplex
• Add a System when COMMUNICATION=DASDONLY
• Add a System when COMMUNICATION=XCF
