Initialization Without Data-in-virtual Maintenance

OPSLOG Browse initializes without using data-in-virtual maintenance if you do not allocate a VSAM linear data set for OPSLOG nor do you supply a //OPSLOG DD statement for it in the CA OPS/MVS JCL procedure.

When it initializes, CA OPS/MVS issues a GETMAIN command for the amount of virtual storage in its extended private area that is necessary to store the number of messages set by the BROWSEMAX parameter.

We strongly recommend that you allocate a VSAM linear data set for OPSLOG. For details, see OPSLOG Browse Initialization Using Data-in-virtual Maintenance in this chapter.
