CA OPS/MVS API

An enhancement to the interface to CA OPS/MVS uses the existing Master Station Message Routing (MSMR) logic. MSMR currently sends messages from the browse data set to Unicenter Event Consoles. A MSGRCNTL DD statement points to the MSMR control file.

In the control file, a TO statement identifies the nodes to which CA Workload Automation SE browse messages are sent. To send a message to CA OPS/MVS, the user adds a new pseudo-destination node named *OPSAPI*. When that node is encountered, MSMR sends the message to CA OPS/MVS using that product's Generic Event Application Programming Interface (API). CA OPS/MVS then processes the message according to rules written for that product.

Note: For more information about MSMR, see the Systems Programming Guide.
