Starting the sender channel on QM1 on z/OS

If necessary, start the channel initiator, start a listener program, and refresh security. Then start the channel using the START CHANNEL command.

1. Optional: if you have not already done so, start the channel initiator.
2. Optional: If you have not already done so, start a listener program on QM2.
   The listener program listens for incoming network requests and starts the receiver channel when it is needed. For information about how to start a listener, see Starting a channel listener
3. Optional: If the channel initiator was already running or any SSL/TLS channels have run previously, issue the command REFRESH SECURITY TYPE(SSL).
   This ensures that all the changes made to the key repository are available.
4. On QM1, start the channel, using the command START CHANNEL(QM1.TO.QM2).
