(MIM) ALTERSYS Command-Alter System Definitions

The ALTERSYS command lets you modify existing system definitions (DEFSYS) while CA MIM is synchronized. The ALTERSYS command requires COMPATLEVEL 12.0 or higher.

SCOPE: Global

This command has the following format:

ALTERSYS target sysname,NAME=(sysname,alias),STATUS=[ENABLED|DISABLED]

target sysname

Specifies the name of the system definition (DEFSYS) entry you want to modify. Specify either system name, index, or alias.

sysname

Specifies the new system name for the target system definition entry.

alias

Specifies the new system alias name for the target system definition entry.

STATUS

(Optional) Determines whether the system can join a currently executing MIMplex.

ENABLED

Indicates that the system is able to join a currently executing MIMplex.

DISABLED

Indicates that the system is strictly prevented from joining a currently executing MIMplex.

Default: STATUS=DISABLED

Note: Altering a system definition automatically marks the system as DISABLED. Specifying STATUS=ENABLED enables the system.
