Section 1, Task 1: Start IT Service Vision
Action 1: Invoke the IT Service Vision server interface.

  1. Invoke IT Service Vision with read access to SITELIB.

    From the TSO READY prompt or ISPF command line, issue the command (normally CMCPE) that invokes the IT Service Vision server with the demonstration PDB as the active PDB. The command invokes the SAS Display Manager System, and from within that SAS session, invokes the IT Service Vision server's interactive interface. IT Service Vision displays the main menu.

    Note: At this point IT Service Vision has read-only access to SITELIB.

  2. Exit from IT Service Vision to the underlying SAS session.

    To exit from IT Service Vision to the underlying SAS session, follow this path from the main menu:

    Exit -> Exit CPE Only

    SAS displays the SAS PROGRAM EDITOR window and SAS LOG window.

  3. Invoke IT Service Vision with write access to SITELIB.

    You may or may not have a command line (Command ===>) at this point. If not, follow this path from the pull-down menus:

    Globals -> Command -> Command Line

    Now, type the following on the command line:

    cpe siteacc=old

    and press ENTER or RETURN. IT Service Vision will now be re-started with write access to SITELIB.

Note: If you are the only user of the IT Service Vision server or have your own CLIST, you can set the SITEACC=OLD parameter in the %CPSTART macro in the CMAUTOEX member of the CPMISC PDS. You can use a text editor (for instance, ISPF Edit) to edit this member. Add the SITEACC=OLD parameter at any place in the list of %CPSTART parameters, checking for commas and closing parentheses.

If, in other tasks, you want to invoke IT Service Vision with parameters, use the PDB=pdbname parameter to specify the PDB name, the DISP=OLD parameter for write access to the PDB and the SITEACC=OLD parameter for write access to the SITELIB. For example:

Then, from your PROGRAM EDITOR window, select Locals and Submit.
