Control-M Triggering of Events in VM

This topic demonstrates how to trigger an event in the VM environment. For example, events can be triggered that cause user notification, attach or detach devices, operate a virtual machine in disconnected mode, initiate a backup process, and so on.

Depending on the software and hardware configuration used at your site, there are at least two methods of triggering an event

• issuing a VM CP Command using IOAOPR (MVS under VM only)
• executing VM Commands using the IOAVAUTO machine
