OPSHMC REXX Program

The OPSHMC REXX program handles the automatic initiation of IPL activities. The OPSHMC program lets you perform the same operations that you can execute manually on the SE/HMC GUI itself; for example, Activate, Load, PswRestart.

The OPSHMS program can perform actions against a specific CPC or LPAR. The definitions of these terms follow:

CPC

Name of each individual processor box (z800, z900, and so on). This box may contain one or more CPUs (processors).

LPAR

A logical partition of the processor resources within a CPC where each partition supports one copy of the z/OS or other operating system

Because z/OS must be active to run OPSHMC, only external LPARs, CPCs, or both can be managed.
