Modifying the IMS control region JCL
The following sections describe how to allocate a BBPARM data set and provide IMS access to the BBLINK modules.
Allocating a BBPARM data set
To establish the parameters for MVIMS Online and MainView AutoOPERATOR for IMS, allocate the BBPARM data sets by adding the following statements to the IMS control region startup procedure:
// DD DSN=hilevel.UBBPARM
// DD DSN=hilevel.BBPARM
Giving IMS access to MainView AutoOPERATOR for IMS
The IMS control region must be able to access the BBLINK modules to enable execution of MVIMS Online and MainView AutoOPERATOR for IMS.
If the BBLINK data set is in the LNKLST concatenation, MainView AutoOPERATOR for IMS access is already established. If not, you can provide access by modifying your IMS control region JCL or by copying the required modules to the site authorized library (such as IMS RESLIB).
To modify the IMS control region JCL, add the B BLINK data set to the IMS STEPLIB concatenation. (BBLINK must be authorized.)
To copy the modules used in IMS, copy the individual BBLINK members to an authorized STEPLIB data set. Select one of the following jobs in BBSAMP:
- ICOPY5 for IMS 11.1
- ICOPY6 for IMS 12.1
- ICOPY7 for IMS 13.1
- ICOPY8 for IMS 14.1
Then edit the JCL and run the job. This job copies the appropriate BMC modules from the BBLINK library to the site-authorized library, such as IMS RESLIB. You must rerun the JCL each time you apply BMC service.
