Chapter 17 Using the Interface to TIBCO Mainframe Service Tracker : Overview

Overview
In addition to the monitoring available with TIBCO Object Service Broker using the Administration Menu, an interface to TIBCO Mainframe Service Tracker is also available. Using this interface, a job or started task associated with a TIBCO Object Service Broker product is able to send a job initialization and job termination notification message to TIBCO Mainframe Service Tracker. This allows TIBCO Object Service Broker to take part in TIBCO Mainframe Service Tracker monitoring, and TIBCO Mainframe Service Tracker in turn feeds this information into TIBCO Hawk.
Enabling the Interface
To enable the TIBCO Mainframe Service Tracker interface, perform the following for each TIBCO Object Service Broker product job or started task that you wish to monitor.
1.
Create a sequential data set that contains a single entry consisting of a SSID=tracker_subsystem_id parameter, starting in column one. The tracker_subsystem_id is the four character subsystem ID specified when the TIBCO Mainframe Service Tracker subsystem was installed; for example, SSKS.
 
SSID=SSKS
 
2.
Add a TRACKER DD statement to the job’s JCL that specifies the name of the data set created in step 1 (in the example below, your.ssidparm.dataset).
 
//TRACKER DD DISP=SHR,DSN=your.ssidparm.dataset
