IDMS

IDMS solutions are designed to keep track of the status of IDMS, to enable integration with Control-M and to automate basic actions of cleaning the IDMS log and journal. Integration is done through IOA prerequisite conditions and is useful for scheduling jobs that use IDMS only when IDMS is active.

Note: Some messages (DO SHOUT actions) in the IDMS rules are sent to INCONTROL users (U-SYSDBA or U-SHFTOPER). Users with these names must be defined in the IOA Dynamic Destination table (CTMDEST). For details, see the considerations chapter of the INCONTROL for z/OS Administrator Guide.

Some rule definitions make use of the inverse IN condition feature. This feature activates rules only if the specified IN conditions are not set. For more information about using inverse IN conditions, see SolveWare Implementation Considerations.
