http://dtsc.dfw.ibm.com/MVSDS/'HTTPD2.DSN01.PUBLIC.PDF(IMSREF)'

IMS maintenance is applied to all Remote Access systems on a monthly basis. It is your company's responsibility to complete any hold actions required for the installation of the maintenance.

Notifications regarding IMS maintenance will be sent to you. If these emails are not being received or if additional people need to be added to our IMS maintenance notification list, please send an email to etpadmin@us.ibm.com.

HLQ for IMS V15: DFSF10

To start IMS 15 from the z/VM Control ID:

First you will need to start IRLM for IMS 15 (If your entering the commands from the SDSF log you will need to put a "/" in front of the commands). The proc should match which ever version of IMS your starting.

SEND ETPGyyy \CP VI VMSG S IMS15RL1

You should see the following message in the SDSF log or on MVS console:

DXR117I IRLM001 INITIALIZATION COMPLETE

Next you will need to stat the IMS control region with the command shown below. Again, the proc should match which ever version of IMS your starting.

SEND ETPGyyy \CP VI VMSG S IMS15CR1

You should see the following message in the SDSF log or on MVS console: The message will show up as an outstanding message (the message should display white) .

*## DFS910A IMS READY (## will be some number)

You will need to reply to this message :

##,/NRE CHKPT 0 FORMAT ALL (this will cold start IMS)

OR

##,/NRE (this will warm start IMS)

You should see the following message in the SDSF log or on MVS console:

DFS994I COLD START COMPLETED.

OR

DFS994I WARM START COMPLETED.

Once IMS is started it will kick off a task to start the message processing regions. This will take a couple of minutes.

**NOTE If IMS requires an emergency restart you will need to look in the IMS V15 Operations Guide for examples.

To stop IMS 15 from the z/VM Control ID:

You will need to send the following message replys:

##,/NRE CHE SNAPQ (to checkpoint IMS)

Once IMS takes a checkpoint you can then stop IMS

##,/NRE CHE FREEZE (to stop IMS)

You should see the following message in the SDSF log or on MVS console:

$HASP395 IVPGNJCL ENDED - RC=0000

You can then terminate IRLM

SEND ETPGyyy \CP VI VMSG P IMS15RL1 (to terminate IRLM)

To start queue manager CSQ9 from the z/VM Control ID:

SEND ETPGyyy \CP VI VMSG %CSQ9 START QMGR
SEND ETPGyyy \CP VI VMSG %CSQ9 START CHINIT

To stop queue manager CSQ9 from the z/VM Control ID:

SEND ETPGyyy \CP VI VMSG %CSQ9 STOP CHINIT
SEND ETPGyyy \CP VI VMSG %CSQ9 STOP QMGR

IBM performs backups of the virtual guest systems on a regular (weekly) basis and the media used for the backups are stored on-site, only. Included in these backups are the data disks which together comprise the guest systems. The purpose of the backup is to provide a level of opportunity for the recovery of data in the event of a catastrophic disk failure. The backups may also be used to recover data for a guest system though, due to unforeseen circumstances, there is no assurance that recovery of data for a guest system will be successful. IBM encourages all program participants to regularly save a copy of their data to a location of their choosing. The data stored at the IBM ISV Center should never be the only copy of the data.

The techniques used for saving data will vary depending on the guest operating system in use and are discussed in the User's Guide and Reference applicable to your guest operating system under "Support Manuals" on the http://dtsc.dfw.ibm.com/ website.

Your enrollment in the IBM Z Remote Development Program (RDP) will not automatically terminate. You may choose to terminate your enrollment in the RDP at any time by providing IBM written notice at least thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of the termination. The effective date will be the last day of the calendar month to coincide with the end of the of the monthly invoice cycle.

The IBM Z Dallas ISV Center provides maintenance for operating systems, subsystems and products on a frequent basis. Additional instructions about required maintenance tasks and other releases of products can be found on the following page:

The system provided under the System z Remote Development Program may have been configured with an IP address on a Virtual Private Network (VPN). If you requested a private IP address on our VPN, please follow these instructions.

In order to log-on directly to the remote system, a tunnel to the VPN network must first be established. The VPN tunnel is established by logging-on to the Remote Development Program's Virtual Private Network firewall using a Cisco Secure AnyConnect Mobility VPN Client. There are 2 steps for completing the initial login.

You will be provided the opportunity to download a copy of the Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client if you do not already have that client installed. The Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client is only being made available to enable you to connect to the assigned IBM machine for purposes of this program offering. When remote access to the assigned IBM machine has been terminated, the license to use the Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client downloaded from the VPN firewall linked below will be expired and the client must be removed from your system(s).

The instructions for accessing the Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility VPN Client are available on our remote program support website at http://dtsc.dfw.ibm.com/. From the "IBM BP Public web" page, select the "Sign in" button to logon to the secure server. When prompted for a User ID and password, use an assigned z/VM User ID that has been provided in separate email. The userid will be in this format - ETPDyyy.

After a successful sign in, navigate to the IBM BP Secure Web tab and click the link titled "Remote VPN Client Access" under the Secure Information Center. Download and read the " VPN Connectivity Guide for Remote Access Programs". This guide contains detailed instructions for establishing the VPN connection.

Included in Step 1 of the "VPN Connectivity Guide for Remote Access Program" is a prompt for a VPN user ID and password. The VPN user IDs are the same as your z/VM User IDs.

After successfully logging on to the VPN firewall, connect to the remote system with a TN3270 emulator for z/OS using the guest system IP address identified in the delivery email.
