Required SSID parameter

When creating the PAS procedure, you must define the same subsystem name in the SSID subparameter as defined for the CAS in the CAS procedure. For more information, see Installation System. The SSID value is used by the PAS during initialization to identify the CAS to which it is to connect.

To create the z/OS PAS procedure

  1. Copy BBILIB member BBMPAS, shown in Sample-instructions, to SYS1.PROCLIB or to another system procedure library.

  2. Follow the instructions at the top of the member to modify the procedure for your site requirements.

    Warning

    Important

    If the IBM z/OS LONGPARM binder option is enabled, the BMC AMI Ops Monitor for z/OS PAS supports using the PARMDD JCL parameter to specify parameter strings up to 997 characters.

    For an explanation of the DD statements, see the table in Understanding-the-z-OS-PAS-JCL-statements that lists and describes Extractor JCL statements and parameters; for an explanation of the PROC statement parameters, see the figure that is part 2 of the example of the instructions in BBLIB member BBMPAS in Sample-instructions .

  3. (optional) Add the following START command to member COMMNDxx to define the z/OS PAS to your IPL procedure, so that the PAS starts at system initialization:COM='S procName

    In this command, procName is the name of the z/OS PAS Started Task procedure.

    BMC Software recommends that you modify SYS1.PARMLIB member COMMNDxx to define the z/OS PAS to initialize at IPL. The COMMNDxx member contains z/OS commands that are issued by the master scheduler upon system initialization.

    Warning

    Important

    Commands are issued in the order in which they appear in COMMNDxx. The z/OS PAS START command must occur after the CAS START command. For more information about defining the CAS proc, see Installation System.

    If you do not define the z/OS PAS to start at IPL, see Administering for instructions about manually issuing a START command for the PAS.
