MSF Support of JES3 (JES3 Only)

JES3 supports the routing of JES3 commands that are entered from a local processor. JES3 routes these commands to the global by using the JES3 PLEXSYN (syplex scope) CPF prefix. CA OPS/MVS submitted JES3 commands from a local processor will automatically make use of this facility.

However, there are cases where CA OPS/MVS users need to route a JES3 command from a local in one JESPLEX to JES3 a global in a different JESPLEX. Or, perhaps they do not have the JES3 PLEXSYN prefixes in place to do the command routing. For these cases, CA OPS/MVS can be configured to use MSF along with the JES3SYSID parameter. CA OPS/MVS will route JES3 commands entered on the local via MSF to the global MSF name that is defined in the JES3SYSID.
