Interface to OMEGAMON

To establish an interface between CA OPS/MVS and OMEGAMON, insert an OxREPORT DD statement in the OMEGAMON JCL procedure that uses the SUBSYS keyword to identify CA OPS/MVS as the target of that file.

SEND OMEGAMON MVS EXCEPTIONS TO CA OPS/MVS
//OMREPORT     DD   SUBSYS=(OPSS,OMEGAMON,MVS),
//             DCB=(RECFM=FBA,LRECL=81,BLKSIZE=81)
               SEND OMEGAMON CICS EXCEPTIONS TO CA OPS/MVS
//OCREPORT     DD   SUBSYS=(OPSS,OMEGAMON,CICS),
//             DCB=(RECFM=FBA,LRECL=81,BLKSIZE=81)
               SEND OMEGAMON CICS EXCEPTIONS TO CA OPS/MVS;
               IDENTIFY SOURCE CICS SYSTEM
//OCREPORT     DD   SUBSYS=(OPSS,OMEGAMON,CICS,CICSTEST),
//             DCB=(RECFM=FBA,LRECL=81,BLKSIZE=81)
               SEND OMEGAMON IMS EXCEPTIONS TO CA OPS/MVS
//OIREPORT     DD   SUBSYS=(OPSS,OMEGAMON,IMS),
//             DCB=(RECFM=FBA,LRECL=81,BLKSIZE=81)
               SEND OMEGAMON DB2 EXCEPTIONS TO CA OPS/MVS
//ODREPORT     DD   SUBSYS=(OPSS,OMEGAMON,DB2),
//             DCB=(RECFM=FBA,LRECL=81,BLKSIZE=81)

The format for the JCL examples above is as follows:

//ddname DD SUBSYS =(ssid,OMEGAMON,type{,reportid})
ddname

Specifies the ddname associated with the file.

ssid

Specifies the four-character CA OPS/MVS subsystem ID to which these messages are routed (usually OPSS).

type

Identifies the specific Tivoli OMEGAMON XE on z/OS product. The type must be MVS, CICS, IMS, or DB2.

reportid

(Optional) Specifies a unique report ID you can use in a rule to identify the source of the message.
