Define IMS Subsystem-Specific Data

This policy combines fields that are built into the IMSCNTL and the ENVIRONMENT structures of the configuration files. The fields within a structure are inherited all together, but each structure is inherited independently from the other.

Furthermore the IMSCNTL fields do not allow definitions for a class (though they are displayed on the class panel). And finally for a subtype other than CTL only a subset of the fields is available.

Thus there are three variations of this panel:

  1. Instance of subtype CTL with all IMSCNTL and all ENVIRONMENT fields
  2. Class of subtype CTL with all ENVIRONMENT fields
  3. Instance or Class of subtype other than CTL with a subset of ENVIRONMENT fields (2 fields)

The first four fields (APPLid, Default HSBID, Startup parm1, Startup parm2) are never inherited. They cannot be specified for a class. The remaining fields are inherited all together in a blocks.
