This section describes configuration steps and parameters for the Adapter for IMS in the DBCTL and XMI Server environments.
How to: Reference: |
You can configure the Adapter for IMS DBCTL from the Web Console or the Data Management Console.
You can configure the adapter from either the Web Console or the Data Management Console.
or
From the Data Management Console, expand the Adapters folder.
The Adapters folder opens.
The Add Adapter to Configuration pane opens.
Note: Restart the server so the connection to DBCTL can be initialized.
The IMS Adapter in under the DBMS group folder.
The following list describes the connection attributes for which you can supply values. To complete the attribute declaration, click the Configure button.
ON activates DBCTL security. This setting requires that the server be in authorized mode.
OFF does not implement DBCTL security.
START.
The adapter uses the IMS DBCTL environment to connect to IMS databases. Reconnection to DBCTL is now handled automatically using the IMS RECONNECT parameter.
The default reconnection time interval is 2 minutes. However, if an ABEND occurs during an IMS shut down, you must increase the reconnection time interval.
Note: For best results, we strongly recommend that you use the IMS /CHECKPOINT FREEZE command as your mechanism for shutting IMS down.
If this parameter is set to 0, reconnection works as in previous releases, without automatic restart. In this case, you must restart the server to establish the connection to DBCTL.
Points to a valid class that contains the security rule. The Systems Administrator can define any class name required by the security implementation of the site. The default value is PCICSPSB.
The suffix of the IBM/IMS DFSPZP module that is created during the IMS/DBCTL installation process. For more information, see Assembling and Linking the DRA Startup Table in How to Create the DRA Startup Table: DFSPZPxx.

The XMI Server requires a communication file to specify the TCP/IP port that it will listen on. This file is allocated to the EDACS3 DDNAME in the sample JCL files IIMSBMP or IIMSDLI. The member named XMIODIN must be created in a PDS library and have the following contents:
NODE=IMSXMI
BEGIN
PROTOCOL=TCP
CLASS=SUSERVER
PORT=nnnn
END
where:
Is the TCP/IP port selected for the XMI Server job. It must match the port number selected on the Web Console or DMC when the IMS XMI Adapter was configured.
To invoke a WebFOCUS request or SQL query in the XMI Server environment, you must issue a USE command in any supported server profile or user-written procedure. The syntax is
USE mfdname ON XMIIMS1
END
where:
Is the name of the Master File used in the request.
Is the client node in the ODIN file of the Reporting Server.
