Installing distributed alarm definitions (optional)

MainView for z/OS ships distributed alarm definitions in BBACTDEF member BBDTDA.

The ALRMDIST view, as shown in the following figure, lists the distributed alarm definitions, which can be installed by either typing ADD on the COMMAND line or using an ADD line command.

Note

ALRMDIST writes the alarm definition directly to the MainView for UNIX System Services file system. Your PAS must have an OMVS segment and must be authorized to write to the directory specified for alarm definitions in the CAS.
