Can you find the IMS applid of the CTRL region and logon to it ? .. If so, once logged in, issue a /DIS A and see if the MPP / MPR regions are waiting and if so, in what class .. Try assigning (/ASS) the transaction to that class ....

OK, yes, I am remembering now. Man, I hate IMS :) I really need to get better versed in it. Anyway, what's happening is that IMS isn't automatically starting any of my MPP regions. When I try to start them with /START REGION xxx, I get a whole bunch of MPP regions that all say: DFS690A IMS91M11.REGION.IMS91M11 - CTL PGM NOT ACTIVE, REPLY 'WAIT', 'CANCEL' OR 'ALT-ID' And yet again, the message manual explains the obvious (such as "if a control region is going to come up soon, reply wait".) It doesn't explain what I should be doing to figure out why it's not seeing a control region that is *supposed* to be running. So what are the MPP regions looking for that it doesn't have? The IMS ID seems to be fine. The MPP regions have IMSID=IMS1, and the IMS control region has "IMS1" in it's operator reply, so it *looks* like the IMS IDs match.

Not into IMS either but ... I think you'd need an MPR / MPP available first... (start an MPR / MPP and then issue a /DIS A) First off ... assuming that the transaction was call TEST01, clear your screen and key in TEST01_ where the '_' is meant to be a space. If that does not work, you're likely missing an /ASS TRANS TEST01 CLASS ?? where the '??' would be class available on the MPR / MPP and defined to the TEST01 transaction. -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:ibm-m...@bama.ua.edu] On Behalf Of David Logan Sent: Sunday, May 10, 2009 11:52 AM To: IBM-MAIN@bama.ua.edu Subject: FW: IMS - how do I run an interactive transaction? Hi guys. Sorry, but I am not very well versed in IMS, and I sure am missing something. I want to run an IMS transaction, but no matter what I do, all I get is: DFS064 11:46:46 DESTINATION CAN NOT BE FOUND OR CREATED I've looked this message up in various places, but I have found nothing at all useful to resolving it. What am I missing? This is IMS V9 under z/OS 1.8. It's got default security, which means it won't let me do hardly anything via terminal commands, I have to do everything via message replies on the master console. I have done a "/START DC", although I don't know how to tell if it was successful. OK, I've provided the information I can think of to provide. Any suggestions? Thanks!
