Implementing Message Profiles › Activate Message Profiles

Activate Message Profiles

Note: The message profile activation process can halt the region for a short period of time. After this period, the region continues from where it left off, without loss of control or data. However, delays might occur in responses to system activities. Unless the activation of the message profiles is of a high priority, perform this task when the system is not busy.

After you have created or updated message profiles, you must activate (load) them in each of the linked regions before they can be used.

To activate message profiles, use one of the following methods:

• Select the A option on the System Console Consolidation panel, or enter the /EADMIN.C.A path (available to focal point regions only).
• Enter ACTIVATE at the prompt on the Message Profiles panel (available to focal point regions only). To display the panel, enter the /EADMIN.C.M path.
• Action the CCONSOLIDATN parameter group (available to focal point and subordinate regions). To display the list of parameter groups, enter the /PARMS shortcut.

A region only activates profiles with a status of ACTIVE.

Profiles with a status of ACTIVE also become active automatically whenever the region is started. Profiles with a status of INACTIVE are not activated when the region is started.

Message Profile Size Considerations

If the total size of the profiles loaded is too large, activation of message profiles can fail. If the problem occurs, a message is generated to indicate by how much the size should be reduced. The ID of the message is either RMCCST11 or RMINWI36.

Note: For information about how to correct the problem, see the message online help.
