What is the IMFEXEC MVX API


The MVX API provides for a two-way data exchange between BMC AMI Ops products (such as BMC AMI Ops Monitor for CICS, BMC AMI Ops Monitor for z/OS, BMC AMI Ops Monitor for IMS, and others) and a BMC AMI OpsA REXX EXEC.

Through the API, 

BMC AMI OpsA

 EXECs can explicitly request the data from a 

BMC AMI Ops

 product. The MVX API enables 

BMC AMI OpsA

 to gather data from the 

BMC AMI Ops

databus to flow from any of the 

BMC AMI Ops

 products into 

BMC AMI OpsA

.

BMC AMI OpsA EXECs process the BMC AMI Opsdata based on how a BMC AMI Ops view looks during a BMC AMI Ops terminal session, so you see the exact output in an EXEC exactly as you would see when the view is displayed from a BMC AMI Ops terminal session.

BMC AMI OpsA processes BMC AMI Opsdata as an array where data from the BMC AMI Opsdatabus (tabular and detail format views) is returned in rows and columns. An array is a table that consists of one or more rows and columns that are given names. A one-to-one relationship exists between the columns of a view and the columns in the resulting array. For more information about the naming conventions for array columns, see Customizing-BMC-AMI-Ops-Infrastructure-views-and-connecting-BBI-SS-PAS-to-a-CAS.

Warning

Important

Every command described in this section is prefixed by the literal MVX to avoid naming conflicts with existing IMFEXEC commands.
