Real-time control NMI: Invoking the requests

Use the EZBRCIFR interface to invoke the NMI requests. This section lists the requirements for invoking the NMI requests and describes the invocation and parameters that are used for the EZBRCIFR interface.

Restriction: If the NMI requests are invoked on an MVS™ release that does not support the NMI, an ABEND019 occurs and the request terminates.

Considerations for C/C++ applications

If you create a C/C++ application that invokes the NMI requests, ensure that the SYS1.CSSLIB data set is included in the search path during the program bind step when you create the executable program for your application. This ensures that the correct NMI interface programs are included in your executable program.
