Operate the IMS adapter

Use this topic to understand how to operate the IMS adapter, which connects IBM MQ to IMS systems.

Note: The IMS adapter does not incorporate any operations and control panels. This topic contains the following sections:

• Control IMS connections
• Connect from the IMS control region
• Display in-doubt units of recovery
• Control IMS dependent region connections
• Disconnect from IMS
• Control the IMS trigger monitor

• Control IMS connections
  Use this topic to understand the IMS operator commands which control and monitor the connection to IBM MQ.
• Connect from the IMS control region
  Use this topic to understand the mechanisms available to connect from IMS to IBM MQ.
• Display in-doubt units of recovery
  We can display in-doubt of units of recovery and attempt to recover them.
• Control IMS dependent region connections
  We can control, monitor, and, when necessary, terminate connections between IMS and IBM MQ.
• Disconnect from IMS
  The connection is ended when either IMS or the queue manager terminates. Alternatively, the IMS master terminal operator can explicitly break the connection.
• Control the IMS trigger monitor
  We can use the CSQQTRMN transaction to stop, and start the IMS trigger monitor.
