HCI considerations for functional test


Your Host Communications Interface (HCI) JCL (sample member HCIPROCS in SLCXCNTL) must also include the following DD statements1 for Total Test: 

//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//CEEDUMP DD DUMMY
//XASYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*

We recommend to set up your HCI connection with REGION=0M as the required region size varies depending on the size of the modules to analyze. Should your site not allow REGION=0M, set region size to 92M, for example, and increase it should an "out out memory" condition occur.

When running z/OS Agent v2.0.0 or later, the LEE settings for ALL31 must be ALL31(ON) and the third parameter in STACK must be set to ANYWHERE. These LEE settings can be applied using DD statement CEEOPTS when starting the z/OS Agent task. Example of CEEOPTS DD statement:

//CEEOPTS1 DD *
ALL31(ON)
STACK(262144,131072,ANYWHERE,KEEP,524288,131072)
/*

See Configuring Connections in section Configuring the Total Test Repository Server of the BMC AMI Web Products Installation and Configuration Guide. Also, see the BMC AMI Enterprise Common Components installation and configuration guide and BMC AMI Enterprise Common Components advanced configuration Guide for information on how to configure HCI.

1 PTF CXS902A removes the need for //XASYSOUT
