Overview of the z/VSE version of IOCP

The z/VSE version of IOCP runs under control of z/VSE. Run the z/VSE version of IOCP by using z/VSE JCL statements. By coding options in the PARM parameter of the EXEC statement, you can:
  • Generate an IOCDS.

    IOCP reads, validates, and checks the syntax of the input statements. It generates an IOCDS based on the configuration defined in the statements. It produces reports of the IOCDS generated, and, when requested, IOCP writes the generated IOCDS to the Support Element hard disk.

  • Produce configuration reports.

    IOCP reads one or more IOCDSs into storage from the Support Element and prints the IOCP configuration reports. (See IOCP configuration reports for examples.)

Note: If you run VSE as a guest under VM, writing an IOCDS is not supported.
