Usage

The DEFINE command is used to define one or more transport manager subsystems that support IMS components for one or more global service groups.

A START SYSTEM(name) command is required to start the TMS once it has been defined.

SYSTEM
Specifies the first portion (1 to 5 characters) of the VTAM APPLID used by the other transport managers to which this transport manager should connect. The name specified should match the SET APPLID. A system name that matches the APPLID of this transport manager (specified on SET) causes an informational message to be issued; other system names will continue to be processed.

Transport manager will not communicate with an LU whose name has not been defined by a DEFINE SYSTEM command.

STARTED
Specifies that the system should be started automatically when the TMS is started or (if the TMS is already started) when the DEFINE command is processed.

STARTED is the default.

STOPPED
Specifies that the system should not be started automatically when the TMS is started or (if the TMS is already started) when the DEFINE command is processed.
