ThruPut Manager function

This sectiondescribes the TM function. Its purpose is to group a number of initialization statements, commands and exits that define environmental parameters for ThruPut Manager.

Description

The ThruPut Manager (TM) function is a catch-all function under which a number of environmental definitions are grouped. For each function there is a corresponding TMSS initialization statement under the function id of TM. A complete description of the statements is found in TMSS-initialization-statements. The different functions are listed below.

ACS Statement

Activates the ACS support and allows you to define the unit names associated with the facility.

ATL Statement

Activates the 5400 ATL support and allows you to define the unit names associated with the facility.

BATCH Statement

Allows you to batch TM commands in a file to be executed at initialization time.

CATALOG SET Statement

Specifies the timeout interval and requeue priority to be used when MVS catalog management is not responding.

EXIT Statement

This statement specifies which installation exits are to receive control from ThruPut Manager, and their initial status.

SMS Statement

This statement informs ThruPut Manager how the DFSMS storage groups are defined in your installation, and which groups are associated with various facilities such as IBM 3495 ATLDS support and VTS.

TRACE Statement

This statement activates and deactivates the ThruPut Manager tracing facility.

UNIT Statement

This statement allows your installation to inform ThruPut Manager of unit name changes that your system may alter after the job has been processed by ThruPut Manager.

USER Statement

This statement defines user areas that can be associated with each job. Space is then provided for you to place data. These data areas can be accessed by installation exits.

Implementation Summary

Each individual statement should be reviewed for its applicability to your installation.

Dependencies

There are no dependencies for the TM function.

TMSS Initialization Statements

All TM functions are associated with TMSS initialization statements, as indicated above.

TM Operator Commands
Command	Description
TM BATCH	Allows the operator to request the execution of a group of commands stored in a file.
TM CATALOG	Displays or sets the options used by ThruPut Manager when searching MVS catalogs during job analysis.
TM CLASS	Allows the operator to display and alter the classes that are selected or exempted from ThruPut Manager processing.
TM DISPLAY	Displays the current levels of software for ThruPut Manager, JES2, and MVS, or the initialization parameters for ThruPut Manager
TM EXIT	Specifies which installation exits are to receive control and their initial status. It can also be used to display the status of exits.
TM OPTIONS	Allows you to enable, disable, and display the status of components.
TM TRACE	Activates and deactivates the tracing facility.
TM UNIT	Manages unit name mappings used to inform ThruPut Manager about unit name changes that occur after Job Analysis.

TM Exits
Exit #	Exit Name	Description
Exit 10	TMSS Initialization	This exit receives control when the TMSS address space is started.
Exit 11	TMSS Termination	This exit receives control when the operator requests that the TMSS address space terminate processing.
Exit 12	TMOS Command Inspection	This exit receives control when ThruPut Manager Operator Services (TMOS) has been given an operator command and is about to process it.
