Purpose of These Lessons

The first lesson starts your automation education by showing you how to have CA OPS/MVS automatically suppress system messages that you do not want to see. We start with this topic for the following reasons:

• Most system automaters start automating a system by suppressing unwanted messages.
• Rules that govern how message suppression operates can be fairly simple.
• Once a few message suppression rules are established, we can illustrate how several CA OPS/MVS facilities function by investigating how those rules affect your system.
