Controlling Exit Routines Through Commands

You can control any CA MIM exit routine using the following commands:

• To display information about all exit routines, issue the following command:

  DISPLAY EXIT
  

  The information includes:

  • The logical and module name of a routine
  • The current status
  • The address at which the module is loaded
  • Its ESTAE options
• To display information about a specific routine, issue the following command:

  DISPLAY EXIT=exitname
  

  For example, DISPLAY EXIT=MIMCMDXT displays information for only the MIMCMDXT exit routine.

• To activate or inactivate a routine, to determine the status if an ABEND occurs, or to provide ABEND protection for it, issue the following command:

  SETOPTION EXIT
  

  You cannot use the EXIT parameter on the SETOPTION command to modify processing for the MIMINIXT exit routine.

You can specify these commands in the SYNCH MIM or CMNDS MIM files, or you can issue these commands from a MIMGR virtual service machine console while CA MIM is running.

The CA MIM Resource Sharing for z/VM Statement and Command Reference Guide provides detailed descriptions of both commands and their parameters.
