Starting a Monitor II background session

The value of session-id for a Monitor II background session can be any two-character alphameric value except ZZ.

If JES is not active in your system, and you have started RMF™ with the SUB=MSTR option, you must specify the NOREPORT option when starting this gatherer. This and other options and values that you can specify for parm are listed in Details of report commands.

Example:
  • To start a Monitor II background session when all options are to be taken from the program defaults, issue the command:
    MODIFY RMF,START AB
  • To start a Monitor II background session and specify that reports be produced at the end of the session and that other options be taken from the RMF Parmlib member ERBRMF07, issue the command:
    MODIFY RMF,START BB,MEMBER(07),REPORT(REALTIME)
