Predictive Support Changes in MPE iX 7.0 Express 1
file will not need to be modified, and if the JPSMON.PRED.SYS job is already
incorporated into existing processes for starting and stopping the network, etc., they
will not need to be changed.
A change that will be seen, is that the logon changes from:
PSMON,MANAGER.SYS
or
PSMON,PREDMON.SYS
to:
PSMOND,PREDMON.SYS
WARNING If JPSMON.PRED.SYS is not running, Predictive will not perform
the Scheduled daily run to monitor your system.
To determine if JPSMON is running, you can use the MPE iX SHOWJOB command, as
follows:
:SHOWJOB JOB=PSMOND,PREDMON.SYS
You should see one active job.
The installation job for Predictive Support will attempt to place a "STREAM
JPSMON.PRED.SYS" command in the system startup file (SYSSTART.PUB.SYS), after
the STREAMS command. If this fails, then you should manually add a line to
SYSSTART.PUB.SYS to stream the JPSMON.PRED.SYS job.
NOTE The sysstart must have a creator of MANAGER.SYS in order to be
automatically executed during system startup. Additionally, the first line of
sysstart should be the STARTUP directive.
You should insure that there is a "SPOOLER LP;OPEN" and a "STREAMS 10" command
before the "STREAM JPSMON.PRED.SYS" command in the sysstart file. Also recognize
that for your system, the line printer might have a different class name than "LP", and
your streams device might have a logical device number other than 10.
Here is an example of what the lines in sysstart.pub.sys mightlook like:
Startup
Limit 20,60
Jobfence 7
Spooler lp;start
Streams 10
Stream jstrtlan.sysmaint.sys
Stream jpsmon.pred.sys
**
• The logon for the job PSMON.PRED.SYS was changed to the user PREDMON.SYS,
