Description
IBM Z NetView PPI receiver.

The parameter specifies the Program to Program Interface (PPI) values that enable the monitoring agent to forward Take Action commands to IBM Z NetView. The Tivoli® Enterprise Portal user ID is passed to IBM Z NetView.

Specify the name of the PPI receiver on IBM Z NetView that will receive Take Action commands. If the specified name is invalid or the receiver is not active on IBM Z NetView, default (MGCR) command routing is performed. The value should be a 1-8 character, unique identifier for the receiver program. It can contain alphabetic characters A-Z or a-z, numeric characters 0-9, and the following special characters:
  • dollar sign ($)
  • percent sign (%)
  • ampersand (&)
  • number sign (#)
This value must match the xyz value coded on statement AUTOTASK.?APSERV.InitCmd = APSERV xyz" in the IBM Z NetView DSIPARM initialization member, CNMSTYLE. The Configuration Software generates the KGLHC_PPI_RECEIVER parameter in the KPPENV member of the rhilev.midlev.rtename.RKANPARU library. This value defaults to the IBM Z NetView PPI receiver used by the Server if one is configured in this RTE. Otherwise, specify the default of CNMPCMDR. See the IBM Z NetView online help for command APSERV for more details.

To enable this function, specify a value on the KPP_AGT_PPI_RECEIVER parameter. Ensure that the parameter is not commented out and the value is enclosed in double quotation marks (""). To disable this function, simply comment out the parameter with asterisks ('**').
