This section shows you how to specify the operational statements that control unit level processing of the VTS component.
Operational statements are stored in the prefix.MICS.PARMS cccOPS member, where ccc is the component identifier, and are incorporated into the
MICS
system by running the prefix.MICS.CNTL(cccPGEN) job.
Note:
CHANGES to prefix.MICS.PARMS(cccOPS) members REQUIRE EXECUTION of prefix.MICS.CNTL(cccPGEN) to take effect. In addition, any change to parameters that affect the DAILY operational job JCL such as,
  • Changing RESTART NO to RESTART YES,
  • WORK parameter changes when RESTART NO is ineffect,
  • Specifying TAPEfff (if this product supports a DETAIL level TAPE option),
  • Or changes to prefix.MICS.PARMS(INPUTccc), will require regeneration of the DAILY job by executing prefix.MICS.CNTL(JCLGEND) or by specifying DAILY in prefix.MICS.PARMS(JCLGENU) and executing prefix.MICS.CNTL(JCLGENU). Refer to the checklist (if provided) for updating cccOPS parameters and running required generation jobs.
Review the defaults provided in VTSOPS. In general, the defaults have been chosen to provide out-of-the-box operation for most customer environments. If the defaults meet your site's requirements, you do not need to tailor VTSOPS.
