BBPARM members for TOM


BMC recommends that you set up the BBIPARM ddname in the JCL for the PAS with a concatenation that allows this order:

  1. A UBBPARM data set that contains parameters for this specific TOM
  2. A UBBPARM data set that contains sitewide settings
  3. The BBPARM data sets shipped by BMC with TOM

Example

BBIPARM  DD  DISP=SHR,DSN=TOM-PAS-specific-UBBPARM
         DD  DISP=SHR,DSN=Sitewide.UBBPARM
         DD  DISP=SHR,DSN=hilevel.BBPARM

The following hilevel.BBPARM members are shipped with TOM:

  • MAMCFG00
  • MAMINI00
  • MAMPLX00
  • MAMTOM00
  • MAMPLG00
  • MAMDBG00

By default, TOM uses the BBPARM members with a suffix of 00. You can choose to configure TOM to use a user-specified, two-character alphanumeric suffix on any of the BBPARM members by coding the suffix in the MAMCFGxx member that is passed on the EXEC statement of the PAS JCL. See Multiple-TOM-PASs-BBPARM-member-MAMCFGxx for more information.

Table 1 describes the hilevel.BBPARM members:
