Using the BMC AMI APPLICATION RESTART CONTROL primary menu

Use the BMC AMI APPLICATION RESTART CONTROL primary menu to specify the subsystem identifier of the BMC Consolidated Subsystem (BCSS) to use and to select the AR/CTL object to access.

The BCSS determines the REGISET that will be used; select the correct BCSS and REGISET for your purpose. The BCSS you choose must be active. For more information about the BCSS and REGISET, see Customizing-after-installation.

To use the BMC AMI APPLICATION RESTART CONTROL primary menu

1. Access the Application Enhancement Series primary menu.

2. Type 3 in the choice entry field, and press Enter. The interface displays the BMC AMI APPLICATION RESTART CONTROL primary menu.

3. Type or verify the ID of the BCSS to use.If you don’t know which BCSS to use, or if you want to know which ones are active, type ? or blanks for a list of active subsystems; AR/CTL displays the Active BMC Consolidated Subsystems panel or a message stating that no subsystems are active.

   Note

   If you receive message AESM031A SSCT NOT FOUND or message AESM031A SSVT NOT FOUND, the BCSS is not active. The subsystem must be started before you can connect to it.

   The Current BCSS type field displays the type and version of the BCSS. The version of the BCSS usually does not correspond to the level of AR/CTL.

4. Type one of the following options, and press Enter.
