CA OPS/MVS System State Manager

An additional interface has been added to CA OPS/MVS for its System State Manager. The interface is supported by the CA Workload Automation SE online, ICOM, and NCF tasks. These tasks can provide information directly to CA OPS/MVS without having to issue messages to the console. The tasks' state (UP, DOWN, and so forth) is passed to the System State Manager (SSM) in CA OPS/MVS. These tasks set their status in SSM automatically when the associated initialization options are set to enable the CA OPS/MVS interface.

These tasks issue the following states:

STARTING

Issued at the beginning of the task's initialization.

UP

Issued after the task initialization is complete.

STOPPING

Issued when termination is requested.

DOWN

Issued just before the task ends.

The following control the SSM interface:

CA Workload Automation SE online

Contains a new initialization file statement: STATEMGR,OPSSSM={NO|YES}

ICOM

Contains a new EXEC parameter: OPSSSM={NO|YES}

NCF

Contains a new EXEC parameter: OPSSSM={NO|YES}

Note: For more information, see the Interface Reference Guide, the Systems Programmer Guide, and the Command Reference Guide.
