When you start a Monitor II background session

Assume that the operator issued the following START command to start a Monitor II background session:

MODIFY RMF,START AB,DELTA,SINTV(30),MEMBER(07)

RMF™ uses two of the three options from the START command to begin the list of session options:

DELTA
SINTV(30)

Because MEMBER (07) is specified in the START command, RMF generates the member name ERBRMF07 and locates it in SYS1.PARMLIB. Assume that ERBRMF07 contains the following options:

ASD           STOP(20)
SINTV(10)     SPAG
OPTIONS       SRCS

RMF would add all of these options except SINTV(10) to the option list. RMF would not use SINTV(10) because SINTV(30) was specified on the higher-priority START command. The option list for the session is now:

DELTA         STOP(20)
SINTV(30)     SPAG
ASD           SRCS
OPTIONS

To complete the option list, RMF proceeds to the IBM® supplied program defaults. (These defaults are indicated in the discussion of each option under Details of report commands. After adding the defaults, RMF builds a complete list of session options:

NOASRMJ -- DEFAULT           SYSOUT(A) -- DEFAULT
NOASRM -- DEFAULT            SRCS -- MEMBER
NOARDJ -- DEFAULT            SPAG -- MEMBER
NOARD  -- DEFAULT            ASD -- MEMBER
NOASDJ -- DEFAULT            STOP(20M) -- MEMBER
NOSENQ -- DEFAULT            NOSENQR -- DEFAULT
NOUSER -- DEFAULT            DELTA -- COMMAND
NOIOQUEUE -- DEFAULT         SINTV(30) -- COMMAND
REPORT(DEFER) -- DEFAULT     OPTIONS -- MEMBER
RECORD -- DEFAULT
