Understanding Linkages

When you create a linkage, you authorize a command source on the local system to issue commands to a target system.

If the target system is a z/OS system, CA MIC uses a console you designate on that z/OS target system to execute commands issued through that linkage. If the target system is a z/VM system, all commands issued through that linkage will execute on the MIMGR service machine on that target system.

CA MIC uses a console you designate on the target system to execute commands issued through a linkage. The designated console is known as the target console for the linkage.

For detailed information about the commands, see the Statement and Command Reference Guide.
