MVS command support


You can insert non-BCSS commands, including z/OS console commands, in the data set for BCSS commands.

After the BCSS has completely initialized and is prepared for processing, non-BCSS commands run sequentially.


You must prefix each z/OS command in the data set for BCSS commands with MVS. For example, to issue an MVS start command after BCSS initialization is completed, add the following command to that data set:

MVS S PROC01

Subsystem naming conventions

The BMCP and BCSS subsystems use a four-character name to identify the subsystem to z/OS.

PACLOG installation uses the default names BMCP and BCSS. If either name conflicts with a non-BMC subsystem installed on your system, you can change that name during installation.

If you change the name of the BMCP or BCSS after the subsystem starts, you must perform an IPL.

Important

In the command examples in this manual, bmcpId and bcssId represent the one- to four-character BMCP or BCSS subsystem ID.
