Creating a started task procedure

To create a started task procedure

1. Locate the #UIM member in the UIM sample library.

2. Copy the #UIM member to your system procedure library, and give the new member the name that you selected for the startup member (see Creating-a-startup-configuration-member).The following figure shows the #UIM member:

   //uimx     PROC M=uimx,           <----- NAME OF CONFIGURATION MEMBER
   //             ENV=
   //*--------------------------------------------------------------
   //uimx     EXEC PGM=UIMMAIN,                                           +
   //             ACCT=(acct),        <--- SPECIFY ACCOUNTING INFO        +
   //             REGION=0K,          <--- SPECIFY REGION SIZE            +
   //             TIME=1440,                                              +
   // PARM=('-C &M &ENV -L =B')

3. Edit the new #UIM member by changing the following variables as needed:

   Variable	Definition	Accepted value
   uimx	Name of the started task procedure and the startup configuration member	Name that you gave to the #UIMX member when you copied it to your system procedure library
   bmc.uim.load	Library that contains the UIM server and product execution code	Valid data set name
   bmc.pch.load	Library that contains your product code	Valid data set name
   bmc.uim.content	Library that contains code and files that are downloaded to the client during console installation	Valid data set name
   bmc.uim.config	Library that contains common UIM server, console code, and product execution parameters that are used during initialization of the UIM server	Valid data set name
