OPSMAIN Address Space

The OPSMAIN address space has the following characteristics:

• It is the central address space for CA OPS/MVS.
• It is non-swappable.
• It is a formal z/OS subsystem. That is, it puts an SSCT (subsystem control table) on the z/OS SSCT chain. This permits it to take advantage of the system exit points provided by z/OS.
• With a few important exceptions, it must be running for the CA OPS/MVS facilities to be operative.
