Altering the Values of the SMF Master Process
Attributes
1. Capture the existing default profile:
-> INFO / OUT LOG / $ZSMS, OBEYFORM
2. Enter the log file contents either by copying and pasting into an SCF command line
or by using the log file as a command file.
Altering the Values of the SMF Master Process Attributes
The ALTER MON Command (page 14-70) changes attributes of the SMF master
process in the system configuration database.
Considerations for ALTER MON
•
The process must be in the STOPPED state or not running before you can change
its configuration.
•
Changes take effect when you restart the process.
Example
1. Stop the SMF master process:
-> STOP $ZSMS
2. Change one or more ALTER MON Attributes (page 14-71). For example, to change
the mode to generate all the EMS messages:
-> ALTER $ZSMS, MODE NOISY
3. Verify the change has been made:
-> INFO $ZSMS, DETAIL
