SSM Activation Complete Event type(msg) id(xxx-nnnnn) not working

Products

• OPS/MVS Event Management & Automation

Issue/Introduction

Startup WTO message "PWX-00607" of product Power Exchange from Informatica, includes a non-alphanumeric character [hyphen].

We can't get the SSM component of OPS/MVS to process this message as an activation complete event.

We suspect the non-alphanumeric character may be the reason.

Can you confirm if this is a known bug / restriction and advise how we can get around it?

Environment

Release : 14.0

Resolution

The problem is indeed the presence of the character "-"  in the message id. But we have a solution. Set the parameter AOFMSGID1 to 'PWX-'.

You can set it dynamically at panel 4.1.1 but you must also add it to the OPSSPA00 member for a permanent resolution.

Add to the OPSxPAnn member for permanent resolution:

T = OPSPRM_Set("AOFMSGID1","PWX-")

Reference to the parameters AOFMSGIDx:
