Before you select option 2 (CPSM), from the CICSPlex® System Manager entry panel, ensure that you have correctly specified values for the Default Criteria for CPSM fields.
The values shown for the Default Criteria (for CPSM) displayed on the CICSPlex System Manager entry panel are the default values for the session. You can change these values by overtyping them on the menu. You can also change the context and scope once the session is in progress; ways of making these changes are described in Panels, windows, and views.
When you select option 0 (PROFILE) or option 1 (PLEXMGR), you can ignore any context and scope values because they have no effect.
When you select option 2 (CPSM) specify in the context and scope fields the CICS® and CICSPlex SM resources that are to be affected by any commands you issue during the CICSPlex SM session. Context may be either a CICSplex or a CMAS. If you intend to update the CICSPlex SM configuration (using the ADMCONFG or CONFIG view commands, which are introduced in The CICSPlex SM option), the context must be a CMAS and any scope value is ignored. For all other CICSPlex SM functions, the context is the name of a CICSplex and the scope field contains the name of a single CICS system, a CICS system group, or the CICSplex itself.
The value in the Warning Record Count field indicates, for instances when you request general or summary views, the maximum number of requested records that can be displayed without a warning message. For example, if you enter 12 in this field, you are warned when more than 12 records may result from a request. When a larger number of records is available, a message informs you of the number of records that can be displayed.
When the warning is displayed, you can continue processing your request and display the records or you can choose not to have any records displayed. This allows you to cancel a request that may involve a larger number of records than you anticipated, thus saving the time required to gather and display the information.
If you do not wish to set a threshold, enter 0 (the default) in the Warning Record Count field; all requested records are displayed for each request.
The record count warning is issued only for resources for which CICSPlex SM keeps topology records. Thus, you will not receive a warning when you issue a command to display any of the following views:
The value in the Require Set field indicates whether or not you must type the SET line action command when you enter new data in an overtype field. If you specify YES (the default) in the Require Set field, then when you overtype the contents of a field on a view you must type SET in the line command field, then press Enter to effect the change. If you specify NO in the Require Set field, you do not need to type SET in the line command field after you overtype a value and before you press Enter to effect the change.
At any point during your CICSPlex SM session, you can return to the CICSPlex System Manager entry panel, whether to end the session or to select a different menu option, by issuing either the CICSPlex SM command Quit or the ISPF command RETURN.
When you select option 2 (CPSM) from the CICSPlex System Manager entry panel the MENU menu, which is shown in Figure 4, is displayed.
