/START commands
The /START commands make IMS resources available for reference and use.
/START also checks the validity of
all parameters entered by the terminal operator. If an error is detected
on parameters that are independent of one another, only the invalid
parameters are indicated as being in error and the /START command
processes the rest of the parameters. For example,
/START LINE 4 6 200
DFS058 START COMMAND COMPLETED EXCEPT LINE 200
signifies
parameter value 200 is not a valid line number.When a resource becomes available, the system parameters used for this initialization of IMS are displayed in message DFS1929I. The system parameters are also written to the job log.
These commands can be issued to an IMSplex using the Batch SPOC utility.
