Use the API with TSO/E REXX

To use the CA SYSVIEW API from TSO/E REXX, update the REXX host command environment table to include the SYSVIEW entry. One method is to code the following statement at the beginning of the REXX routine that invokes the API:

ADDRESS 'LINK' 'GSVXRXAA' 

The GSVXRXAA module adds the SYSVIEW entry to the table when it does not exist.

To avoid the overhead of invoking the GSVXRXAA module multiple times, add the SYSVIEW entry to the IRXPARMS, IRXTSPRM, and IRXISPRM modules. Verify that the routine name is GSVXAPIE and the token value is blank.

For more information about updating these modules, see your IBM documentation.
