Background session

Specify background options in either one or both of the following:

The parm field of the session command START that you issue to start the session. See Starting a specific Monitor for the START session command syntax.
The Monitor II background session Parmlib member ERBRMF01. See the explanation of the background session MEMBER option (Define session options). The contents of ERBRMF01 is described in Storing gatherer options.

RMF™ uses a program default for any option you do not specify.

How RMF processes session options describes how RMF merges the options from these three sources. You can modify the options during a session as described in Modifying RMF session options.

Note: Some report options (ARDJ, ASDJ and ASRMJ) have "jobname" as a suboption. You can specify only one of these options per session. If you want to monitor several jobs in parallel, you have to start several background sessions.
