Parameters for Optional Interfaces for Separately Licensed Features › IMS-related (IOF) Parameters › IMSDESC Parameter

IMSDESC Parameter

Default value

X'0000'

Other possible values

Any valid descriptor code, expressed as hexadecimals

Set or modify this parameter...

Anytime

Example: IMSDESC

This function sets the descriptor code to X'0001':

OPSPRM("SET","IMSDESC","X'0001'")

IMSMTO Parameter

The IMSMTO parameter:

• Suppresses all IMS exit type messages destined for the MTO if it is set to ON.
• Affects ALL IMS systems that are using the OPS/MVS IOF interface.

No message suppression rules are needed for IMS exit messages when IMSMTO is set to ON. The OPSLOG disposition for the IMS exit message will not show SUP (for suppressed) if IMSMTO is only doing the suppression. This is because the IMSMTO setting does not require the AOF rules engine to do the suppression. AOF rules used for IMS exit messages will still be processed.

Default value

OFF

Other possible values

ON

Set or modify this parameter...

Anytime

Example: IMSMTO

This function turns on tracing for IMS user exits:

OPSPRM('SET','IMSMTO','ON')
