Automated operator interface

The IMS automated operator interface (AOI) allows application programs to issue IMS commands and can intercept IMS messages routed to the MTO.

You can use it to develop procedures tailored to your installation and to automate some parts of the recovery process. This facility is described in Tools for Automated Operations in IMS Version 15.5 Operations and Automation.

In an IMS complex with the Extended Recovery Facility (XRF), AOI runs on the active IMS subsystem, and after an XRF takeover, AOI runs on the new active subsystem.
