Event Messages From Other

Subsystems

This section describes the content and meaning of all the event messages generated

by other subsystems that are returned by DSM/SCM. Some utilities (BACKUP,

DISKGEN, File Manager, SYSGEN, and Tape Reader) use a DSM/SCM template that

includes a SHARED_SSID statement specifying the DSM/SCM subsystem ID, ZPHI-

VAL-SSID. This lets these utilities share use of the DSM/SCM message header and to

report their events to DSM/SCM. The only difference from a standard DSM/SCM event

is that the event number and the event text are defined by the utility in their own

subsystem Data Definition Language (DDL) files. For more information on the format of

the DSM/SCM message header, see Section 5, Event Messages.

This section describes events generated by BACKUP and Tape Reader (the ZBRT

events) and by SYSGEN (the ZSYS events).

In this section, all tokens and their values are represented in DDL. For a quick

explanation of DDL, see the SPI Programming Manual.
