Parameters created by the DISCOVER action
The DISCOVER action creates parameters for each subsystem it discovers.
Overview of output
The output of the DISCOVER action depends on the subsystem:
| Subsystem | Output |
|---|---|
| Db2®, IMS, TCP/IP | Parameters that configure the runtime environment to monitor these subsystems. For Db2, you need to complete the discovered details. |
| CICS® | Parameters that specify an historical datastore allocation table for task history file disposition. |
| MQ | Statements using embed overrides that you can place in the
KMQ$CUSR embed override
member: |
In addition to the subsystem discovery, a member is created that contains the System symbols that can be used by the GENERATE action along with the respective KCIPARSE extracted variables. For more information, see RTEDEF(SYS@lpar).
Parameters
The following table lists the parameters created by the DISCOVER action.
The parameters created depend on which program performs the action: KCIOMEGA or KCIALPHA.
In general, KCIOMEGA discovers only the subsystem identifier. For detailed discovery, use KCIALPHA.
| Subsystem | Parameter (nn is the 2-digit table row number) |
KCIOMEGA | KCIALPHA |
|---|---|---|---|
| CICS | KC2_HSnn_CLASSIC_CICS_REGION | No | Yes |
| Db2 | KD2_DBnn_DB2_SSID | Yes | Yes |
| Db2 | KD2_DBnn_DB2_VER | No | Yes |
| Db2 | KD2_DBnn_DB2_DS_GROUP | No | Yes |
| Db2 | KD2_DBnn_DB2_LOADLIB | No | Yes |
| IMS | KI2_I1nn_CLASSIC_IMSID | Yes | Yes |
| IMS | KI2_I1nn_CLASSIC_IMS_RESLIB | No | Yes |
| MQ | For MQ subsystems, DISCOVER generates SET MANAGER statements, not parameters. | Yes | Yes |
| TCP/IP | KN3_TCPXnn_TCP_STC | Yes | Yes |
| TCP/IP | KN3_TCPXnn_TCPIP_PROFILES_DSN | No | Yes |
| TCP/IP | KN3_TCPXnn_TCPIP_PROFILES_MBR | No | Yes |
