Modifying BMP jobs so that they are not paused by the BMP handler

If you enable the BMP pause feature and you have some BMP jobs that you do not want to pause, you can disable the BMP pause feature only for such BMP jobs.

Procedure

To disable the BMP pause feature for a BMP job, specify the HRFBPOFF DD statement in the JCL of the BMP job.

For example, if you add the following HRFBPOFF DD statement to the JCL of a BMP job, the BMP handler does not pause the BMP job even when IMS Online Reorganization Facility requests the BMP job to stop.

//HRFBPOFF DD DUMMY

When this BMP job starts, IMS Online Reorganization Facility issues the following message to notify you about a BMP job that will not pause:

HRF01000I: BMP PAUSING IS DISABLED FOR THIS JOB
