This statement has the following format:

MSGR 'text' [ROUTCDE=routinginfo][DESC=descriptor codes]
            [MSGNO=msgnumber][MCSFLAG=mcsoptions]
            [CONSID][RESPONSE]

text

Specifies the message prefix and text that you want CA MIM to use. This string must be enclosed in single quotes.

ROUTCDE

(Optional) Specifies WTO routing code information.

DESC

Usage Note: MSGR Statement

You can specify this statement only in a Message Facility Table member of the MIMMSGS file. Specify this statement after the TABLE statement.

Example: MSGR Statement

To change the route codes on the MIM0100A control file lock out message, specify this statement in your message table:

MSGR 'MIM0100A File @1¦ ‑ possible lockout @2¦ @3¦  ', 
               ROUTCDE=(1,2,4,6,10)

MSGTABLE Command-Load Message Definitions

The MSGTABLE command lets you immediately load the message definitions contained in (or pointed to from) a Message Facility Table file found in the CA MIM parameter files. By doing this, you make those message definitions take effect immediately.

This command has the following format:

MSGTABLE filename

filename

Identifies the file that contains (or points to) the message definitions. Store this file on the MIMGR 191 disk.

Example: MSGTABLE Command

To load message definitions stored in the MIMMSGX file, issue the following command:

MSGTABLE MIMMSGX

(MIM) QUIESCE Command-Temporarily Inactivate CA MIM

The QUIESCE command lets you temporarily inactivate CA MIM (that is, put CA MIM in a wait state) without having to stop it.

Scope: Local

This command has the following format:

QUIESCE

Usage Notes: QUIESCE Command

• The QUIESCE command cannot be issued from a CA MIM parameter file.
• You must be authorized to issue system control commands to issue the QUIESCE command.
• Quiesce CA MIM before you quiesce the operating system. Restart the operating system before you restart CA MIM.
• If you quiesce a system, then do not issue a FREE command for that system. Other systems eventually consider the quiesced system to be asleep.
• To reactivate CA MIM after you have issued the QUIESCE command, use the RESTART command.

Example: QUIESCE Command

To quiesce CA MIM, issue the following command:

QUIESCE

RESTART Command-Reactivate CA MIM After Quiesce
