SOF Discovery Utility

The OPIODIAG utility is a tool used to diagnose problems encountered during the SOF discovery process. You can run it any time to obtain a simple summary of the detected switches, or at the direction of CA Technical Support to capture detailed diagnostic information.

The following JCL captures the switch summary:

//OPIODIAG  EXEC  PGM=OPIODIAG
//STEPLIB   DD    DSN=opshlq.CCLXPLD,DISP=SHR
//SYSPRINT  DD    SYSOUT=*

The following JCL captures the detailed diagnostic information:

//OPIODIAG  EXEC  PGM=OPIODIAG,PARM='CAPTURE'
//STEPLIB   DD    DSN=opshlq.CCLXPLD,DISP=SHR
//SYSPRINT  DD    SYSOUT=*
//OUTFILE   DD    DSN=output-dataset-name,DISP=(NEW,CATLG),
//                UNIT=SYSDA,SPACE=(16384,(1000,500),RLSE),
//                DCB=(RECFM=VB,LRECL=4092,BLKSIZE=16384)

Note: For proper operation, Run OPIODIAG from an APF-authorized program library.
