You can update and execute the SMP USERMODE member in the JCL data set if you wish to customize the three character message prefix or the four character SMF subsystem identifier.
Messages in this release of TIBCO Object Service Broker begin with the prefix S6B (as in the message
S6BKS010I- DATA OBJECT BROKER VERSION …). Customers with extensive investment in automated operations may wish to change
S6B to another prefix value, such as
HRN, for compatibility with older releases of TIBCO Object Service Broker and ObjectStar. You can use any three-character prefix by updating
USERMODE in your JCL data set and then applying
SMP USERMODE. For example, to change the prefix from the default of
S6B to
HRN, set the
PROD macro parameter
ID= in
USERMODE, as follows:
Applying USERMODE will then change the message prefix for all messages as specified.
TIBCO Object Service Broker SMF records are identified by a unique four character SMF subsystem identifier. By default, this identifier is
S6B but previous releases of the product used
HRN. By customizing the SMP USERMODE member in the JCL data set, any four character value can used. This will cause all TIBCO Object Service Broker SMF records to have this value in the SMF SSI field. Refer to
TIBCO Object Service Broker for z/OS Monitoring Performance for the layout and interpretation of SMF records. The SMF Subsystem Id field is at offset 18 (x'12') from the length field of the VBS record and is generally called XXXXSSI, where XXXX is a name dependent on the record subtype.
For example, to change the default SMF subsystem identifier from S6B to a four- character value of
OSB, change the
PROD macro parameter
SMFID= in
USERMODE as follows:
Applying USERMODE will then change the SMF subsystem identifier for all TIBCO Object Service Broker generated SMF data as specified. TIBCO Object Service Broker SMF utilities will automatically recognize SMF data using this new value.
