Status check on requests. . YES (YES/NO)
Operation reset delay . . . NEVER (hh:mm/NEVER)
Batch Interface Server. . . EVJCMDRV (PPI Receiver Name)The following fields can be filled in:
- Status check
- This entry controls the checking of subsystem status on OPC Automation START, STOP, and RECYCLE requests. If this is not coded, OPC Automation enforces the rule that START operations are ended in error if the subsystem is already UP, and likewise for STOP operations if the subsystem is down. Code REQUEST=NO if you want to have OPC Automation proceed as normal in this case. The default value is YES.
- Operation reset delay
- This specifies how long the NetView
interface to OPC may be unavailable before OPC Automation will not reset operations that ended in error
while it was down.
The NetView interface consists of both the NetView SA z/OS OPC Automation address space and its associated NetView SSI address space, over which requests flow from OPC to OPC Automation. When the interface is down, OPC Automation sets any operations destined for a NetView workstation to an error status with an error code of UNTV. If you do not code a value, no operations are reset when the interface becomes available again.
The default value is NEVER.
- Batch Interface Server
- This specifies the PPI name of the server that accepts commands from batch jobs and executes them on NetView. The default value is EVJCMDRV.
