IMS SPOC Subtask Setup

The IMS single point of control (IMSSPOC) Server subtask is the interface between CA SYSVIEW and the IMS Common Service Layer (CSL).

The IMSSPOC task does the following:

• Registers CA SYSVIEW with the IMS Common Service Layer SCI as an AOP.
• Forwards IMS type-1 and type-2 commands to IMS.
• Formats command responses for display at the CA SYSVIEW user session.

To use the IMSSPOC, you need configure and implement the following:

• CA SYSVIEW Option for IMS
• IMS Common Services Layer

The IMSSPOC task starts automatically when the SYSVIEW main task starts. You may start and stop the task from the ASADMIN display. If no IMS subsystems are participating in an IMSPLEX or the CSL is not configured, then remove the task from the SYSVIEW PARMLIB member to prevent it from starting.

Note: For more information on configuring IMS Common Service Layer, see the IBM documentation.
