Starting the SMF Master Process
The START MON Command (page 14-110) starts the SMF master process and puts it
in the STARTED state.
Considerations for START MON
•
Before starting the SMF master process, verify that:
°
$ZSMS has a configuration record (as verified by the INFO command).
°
TMF is running on the system.
°
The CATALOGLOCATION volume for $ZSMS is started, and is enabled by
TMF.
•
To take $ZSMS out of the SERVICING state, reset it and start it again.
Starting $ZSMS
1. Start the process:
-> START $ZSMS
2. Verify the process is started:
-> STATUS $ZSMS
Stopping the SMF Master Process
The STOP MON Command (page 14-131), like the ABORT MON Command, stops
access to the SMF master process.
-> STOP $ZSMS
The SMF master process finishes any current activity before entering the STOPPED
state.
