Refreshing IMSID options, TSS tables, and CPU IDs

After you have modified IMS customization information through the ETA IMSID options panels, data in one or more TSS tables, or a CPU ID, you must update the information in the IMS control region for those changes to take effect. The refresh options on the Refresh Menu allow you to perform this update.

Before you begin

A user access profile must give you authority to specify or refresh data for the appropriate IMSIDs. Contact your ETA system administrator.

To use the TSS refresh feature, you must have previously created or modified one or more TSS tables and specified five or more TSS cache buffers.

To refresh IMSID Options, TSS Tables, and CPU IDs

  1. From the ETA Main Menu, type 6 in the Selection field and press Enter. The Refresh Menu is displayed.

  2. Verify or change the Target.To change the Target, type the new IMSID or Group name in the IMSID or Group field and press Enter.

    If you use XRF, ETA automatically creates two IMSID options modules when you save your IMSID options: the primary IMSID options module and the XRF alternate IMSID options module. ETA creates these modules automatically to ensure that the modules are always synchronized.

    Warning

    Never refresh the IMSID options for your XRF alternate IMS system by specifying the XRF alternate IMSID options module. When you refresh the primary IMS system, the XRF alternate IMS system will be refreshed automatically with the alternate IMSID options module.

  3. Perform one of the following actions:

    After a refresh attempt, ETA issues a message that indicates whether the refresh was successful. See the ETA online message help for additional information on ETA messages.
