OPS/MVS Event Management & Automation

Issue/Introduction

Starting to configure OPSMVS client is having difficulty with ISPF dialogs and panels.. 

When accessing OPSVIEW via ISPF and use the profile option entering:

1 - OPSLOG Browse OPSLOG
2 - issue " pro " or "profile" and enter
3 - filter something
4 - I then hit PF3 and I received the msg:

Address ISPEXEC TBSAVE &OPBOTBL - RC=16
Library not allocated ISPTABL library is not allocated.
Error in PROGRAM OPBOPRO1 line 446 address ISPEXEC TBCLOSE &OPBOTBL - RC=16 
Library not allocated ISPTABL library is not allocated.
Error in PROGRAM OPBOPRO1 line 447

Or at another OPS/MVS release:

OPS1450O TS00JRW  OPSS OPSLOG                       
OPS0996O address ISPEXEC TBSAVE &OPBOTBL - RC=16    
OPS0996O Library not allocated                      
OPS0996O ISPTABL library is not allocated.          
OPS0996O Error in PROGRAM OPBOPRO1 line 526         
OPS0996O address ISPEXEC TBCLOSE &OPBOTBL - RC=16   
OPS0996O Library not allocated                      
OPS0996O ISPTABL library is not allocated.          
OPS0996O Error in PROGRAM OPBOPRO1 line 527        

Environment

Any supported release of z/OS.
Any supported release of ISPF.
Any supported release of OPSMVS.

Resolution

The problem is not the OPBOPRO1 REXX program but rather the TSO logon proc or the clist used to access OPSMVS.

This DDNAME ISPTABL must be allocated with write access prior to accessing OPSVIEW. Further the table output data set,
allocated to the ISPTABL DDNAME must also be included in the ISPTLIB concatenation.
