Working with the DBC subsystem

To use the DBC technology, you must start and manage a DBC subsystem.

This section explains how to:

  • Start a DBC subsystem
  • Specify DBCPARMS parameters
  • Stop a DBC subsystem

Note

If you are using a version of IBM z/OS earlier than Version 1 Release 12, ensure that the AF_UNIX MAXSOCKETS value in BPXPRMxx is set to a value of at least 1000 before starting the DBC subsystem. For more information about the MAXSOCKETS value, refer to IBM documentation.
