IMSnPSBNAME Parameter

Together with the DEBUGBMP, IMSnINITBMP, and IMSnTRANNAME parameters, the IMSnINITPSB parameter helps you to control the activation or deactivation of a BMP region that the IOF can use to process IMS commands. The value of n is a number (1 to 32) of an IMS control region.

This parameter specifies the program specification block (PSB) name for this BMP region. The name must match the value specified in the PSB=name keyword of the APPLCTN macro for the BMP.

The APPLCTN macro must specify these values:

PGMTYPE=BATCH, FPATH=NO, SCHDTYPE=PARALLEL

Note: These values are the basic requirements for the BMP.

The PSB also requires a PSBGEN/ACBGEN job that includes the following values in the PSBGEN statement:

LANG=ASSEM, MAXQ=0, CMPAT=YES, IOASIZE=132

No other PSBGEN statements are needed.

Default values

Other possible values
