Using the Regis Tool

Start the Regis tool to modify the different adapter parameters.

1. Browse to the Windows command prompt.
2. Log on to the TSO on the z/OS® operating system that hosts the adapter.
3. Run the ovms command. Press Enter to enter the UNIX System Services environment.
   Note: You can also use a telnet session to enter the UNIX System Services environment.
4. In the command prompt window, change to the read/write/bin subdirectory of the adapter. If the adapter is installed in the default location for the read/write directory, run the ./regis -<option> command.
   The following options are available for the Regis tool:
