Sharing an action processing environment

To configure an instance of Operations Manager to allow sharing of its action processing environment, issue the DEFIPCS command. The following command is an example of sharing the action processing environment of an Operations Manager instance:

DEFIPCS NAME LSTNENV +
APPL GOMRSCL +
USER TCPIP +
ADDR 0.0.0.0 +
PORT 43001 

The command above starts the listener program provided by Operations Manager (APPL GOMRSCL) and instructs the program to listen on TCP port 43001 (PORT 43001) of any available IP address (ADDR 0.0.0.0) assigned to the TCP/IP service machine named TCPIP (USER TCPIP).

Note: Depending on your z/VM TCP/IP configuration, you may need to authorize OPMGRM1 (and any user ID running GOMMAIN) to use the ports specified in your DEFIPCS statements. Refer to the PORT or OBEY statements in the z/VM TCP/IP Planning and Customization (SC24–6125) documentation for information on enabling an application to use specific ports.
