Requirements

All BMC AMI Data for IMS system administration products

All products have the following requirements:

  • ISPF 3.5 or later

  • IBM VTAM

  • DASD storage

  • APF-authorized library concatenated before IMS RESLIB

DELTA IMS DB/DC

  • MLPA DFSBC000 must reside in a library in the control region that is running DELTA IMS if the following conditions exist:

    • Multiple IMS systems share a common DFSBC000.

    • One or more of the systems do not use DELTA IMS.

    Important

    Change search parameters as necessary to ensure that the STEPLIB for that control region is searched first.

  • Because modifications to LPA LIB modules apply to all IMS control regions on the CPU, all IMS control regions must use DELTA IMS if the IMS modules are in LPA LIB; otherwise, unpredictable results can occur.

  • To add resources, at least one of each element type must be SYSGENed to the IMS system; otherwise, a user 168 abend will occur when you restart IMS.

  • To use version 5.3 and later, IBM module ICQASLI0 must be in the SYS1.PARMLIB(IKJTSO00) data set member in the AUTHTSF name list, and IBM module DFSTPPE0 (the APPC/IMS TP_PROFILE scheduler exit) must be in a LINKLIST data set.

    Important

    Consult your MVS systems programmer to determine the appropriate LINKLIST data set.

DELTA IMS for DBCTL

  • If multiple IMS systems share a common DFSBC000 and one or more of the systems do not use DELTA IMS, MLPA DFSBC000 must reside in a library in the control region that is running DELTA IMS.

    Important

    Change search parameters as necessary to ensure that the STEPLIB for that control region is searched first.

  • Because modifications to LPA LIB modules apply to all IMS control regions on the CPU, all IMS control regions must use DELTA IMS if the IMS modules are in LPA LIB; otherwise, unpredictable results can occur.

  • To add resources, at least one of each element type must be SYSGENed to the IMS system; otherwise, a user 168 abend will occur when you restart IMS.

DELTA IMS VIRTUAL TERMINAL

  • If multiple IMS systems share a common DFSBC000 and one or more of the systems do not use DELTA IMS, MLPA DFSBC000 must reside in a library in the control region that is running DELTA IMS.

    Important

    Change search parameters as necessary to ensure that the STEPLIB for that control region is searched first.

  • Because modifications to LPA LIB modules apply to all IMS control regions on the CPU, all IMS control regions must use DELTA IMS if the IMS modules are in LPA LIB; otherwise, unpredictable results can occur.

  • To add resources, at least one of each element type must be SYSGENed to the IMS system; otherwise, a user 168 abend will occur when you restart IMS.

  • IMS module DFSBC000 cannot reside in any LPA library.

  • ETO must be disabled. Ensure that ETO is not included in the IMSGEN or disable ETO by specifying ETO=N in PROCLIB member DFSPBxxx.

  • To allow multiple sign-ons for a single user ID, the IMS control region SGN parameter value must be G, M, or Z.
