OMMVS Customization Variables

You must customize the OMMVS REXX program before using it. The initial section of the program contains several assignment statements for variables whose values are installation dependent.

The following variables are installation dependent:

separator

Changes the command separator from the default vertical bar (|) to a character or string of your own choice.

Note: Choosing a single character can be problematic. You must use a character that will not be interpreted as part of an OMEGAMON command.

termname

Specifies the name of the virtual terminal to be used by OMMVS. This name must be defined to VTAM, but need not be defined to the EPI.

termpswd

If the virtual terminal was defined to VTAM with a password (PRTCT= keyword on the APPL statement), then you must specify that same password here.

applname

Specifies the name of the OMEGAMON VTAM application ID.

logmode

Specifies the logmode name to be used for the virtual terminal.

subsys

If you will be using a secondary copy of CA OPS/MVS with OMMVS (a copy other than subsystem OPSS), then you must specify its four-character subsystem name here.

OM_Userid

Specifies the OMEGAMON user ID (if required by OMEGAMON).

OM_Password

Specifies the OMEGAMON user ID password (if required by OMEGAMON).

The OMEGAMON password and user ID are only required if OMVTAM security was implemented.
