Netview & SA

Dear Listers

I am quite new to automation using System Automation & Netview. I am trying to implement a simple scenario for the sake of understanding before I go to real implementation. What I want to implement is trap a message like IEA631I and make the automation issue an MVS command D T.

For this I have setup Netview SSI address, Netview address and Automation addresspace, all came up properly. I added an MVS component and selected message processing as below,
Command ===> SCROLL===> PAGE
Entry Type : MVS Component PolicyDB Name : TEST
Entry Name : TESTCOMPONENT Enterprise Name : TEST
Define message IDs and their automation actions.
CMD = Command REP = Reply CODE = CODE USER = User Data AUTO = UP Msg
Action Message ID Cmd Rep Code User Auto
Description
cmd IEA631I

I selected CMD option and entered as below for command processing,

CMD Processing Row 1 of 21
Command ===> SCROLL===> PAGE
Entry Type : MVS Component PolicyDB Name : TEST
Entry Name : TESTCOMPONENT Enterprise Name : TEST
Subsystem : MVSESA
Message ID : IEA631I
Enter commands to be executed when resource issues the selected message.
Pass/Selection Automated Function/'*'
Command Text
MVS D T

Finally, I attached the MVS component to the system and did I built of the policy from customization dialog. I coded MPFLST to forward IEA63I1 to NETVIEW, followed by SET MPF.

I restared netview/SSI and automation address space. However, the automation did not work. Am I on right track please?

TIA
Arun
