Affinity factor examples


The following examples demonstrate the affect that the affinity factors have on deciding which BBI-SS PAS should manage a particular IBM CICS region.

Additionally, they illustrate how to use the parameters to guide AutoConnect in determining what CICS regions should be managed by which BBI-SS PAS. In all of these examples, the following configuration is used:

  • Single LPAR running a single BMC AMI Ops CAS (CASA)
  • Three BBI-SS PASs (PASA, PASB, PASC)
    • PASA and PASB are considered production BBI-SS PASs and are used to monitor the production CICS regions. They share a common UBBPARM data set.
    • PASC is considered a test BBI-SS PAS and is used to monitor the test CICS regions. Its UBBPARM library is separate from that used by the other two BBI-SS PASs.
  • 75 target CICS regions (CICS01 - CICS75)
    • CICS01-CICS60 are production CICS regions
    • CICS61-CICS75 are test regions
  • PASA currently monitoring 27 CICS regions
  • PASB currently monitoring 24 CICS regions
  • PASC currently monitoring 5 CICS regions
