Common Exit Interface: MIMCMDXT

You can use any of these routines in conjunction with the CA MIM MIMCMDXT exit routine to change the way CA MIC handles commands and messages. Note that the MIMCMDXT routine provides a more efficient way to change certain command information than the CA MIC routines do.

For example, although the GCMCMDXT routine can prevent certain local commands from being directed to external systems, the MIMCMDXT routine lets you modify the entire command, including the external system names.

If you use the MIMCMDXT routine, CA MIM calls it whenever a CA MIM command is issued on the local system and whenever a cross-system command is issued from the local system. The MIMCMDXT routine is always called before the GCMCMDXT routine. Therefore, make changes (such as adding external system names) to commands through the MIMCMDXT routine.
