Finding information for APPC/MVS

Use Table 1 to find information to help you set up the log stream for APPC/MVS to use during resource recovery. An APPC/MVS log stream is required for protected conversations support.

Table 1. Finding APPC/MVS information
What is your goal?	You need to read:
Plan for and set up the APPC/MVS log stream.	Preparing to use system logger applications contains most of the information you need to plan and set up a log stream for APPC/MVS. For information that is specific to APPC/MVS, however, see the topic on protected conversations support in z/OS MVS Planning: APPC/MVS Management, which contains: The required naming convention to use for the APPC/MVS log stream Requirements and suggestions for the associated coupling facility structure.
Plan and set up DASD space needed for APPC/MVS log data sets and staging data sets.	Plan DASD space for system logger
Define the APPC/MVS log and staging data sets to global resource serialization in the GRSRNLxx parmlib member.	Add the DASD data sets to the GRSRNL inclusion list
Define authorization to system logger resources for APPC/MVS.	Define authorization to system logger resources
Format the LOGR couple data set, identify it to the sysplex, and make it available.	Format the LOGR couple data set and make it available to the sysplex
Add, update, or delete APPC/MVS policy data (the APPC/MVS log stream and its associated coupling facility structure) in the LOGR policy using the IXCMIAPU utility.	LOGR keywords and parameters for the administrative data utility
Update the CFRM sysplex couple data set with the coupling facility structure associated with the APPC/MVS log stream.	CFRM parameters for administrative data utility
Activate the LOGR subsystem.	Activate the LOGR subsystem
