This chapter provides a step-by-step approach to learning system automation techniques using CA OPS/MVS. In it, you begin by using the Automated Operations Facility, or AOF, to create a rule that suppresses one type of z/OS system message. Using AOF, we also modify that rule, test it, and enable and disable it. In later lessons, you use other CA OPS/MVS facilities to establish more rules in different ways.
OPSVIEW is the main user interface to CA OPS/MVS. It is through the OPSVIEW network of panels and user menus that you can communicate with and use CA OPS/MVS.
The following OPSVIEW Primary Options Menu is the origination point from which you enter all CA OPS/MVS facilities and functions:
