  • 1.  zOSMF/CIM issue

    Posted Mon March 09, 2020 11:32 PM

    Hello All!

     

    I am trying to get the CIM indication provider subscription defined for the asynchronous job notification for z/OSMF and am running into issues.  I am in a z/OS 2.3 LPAR.  Following the z/OSMF 2.3 doc, I am using cimcli to create the filter, handler and the subscription.  I get no errors upon creation of the filter or handler.  When I attempt to create the subscription, I get

     

    cimcli Pegasus Exception: PGS00408: The object name is not valid: root/PG_InterOp:CIM_IndicationFilter.CreationClassName=CIM_IndicationFilter,Name=IZU_Job_Completed_Filter,SystemCreationClassName=CIM_ComputerSystem,SystemName=sys, reason:"invalid key-value pair, invalid negative number value CIM_IndicationFilter". Cmd = ci Object = CIM_IndicationSubscription

     

    I believe this means that it doesn't like the filter definition.  I'm guessing that a value is being defaulted to -1 that is causing the problem, but I'm new to CIM and am having an issue locating if this is the cause, and if it is, is there a doc issue or maybe a CIM configuration issue?  Any help would be appreciated.

    Hello,

    We used the asynchronous job notification ...
    The CIM's register was not easy for me at the begining . Did you used the filter and handler reference answer in the subscription ?

    Hello,

     

    Yes.  I did.  I did get past this.  For some reason, the statements in the manual had to be entered using the shell script definition and could not be entered manually. 

     

    Thanks,

    Chris

    Hello,

    Sorry for my bad english.
    At the beging we encouter a lot of problem to create the subscription.
    The IBM support give us a script shell to create the subscription. It was not working on our plant .
    That's why I export each answer in an export command and the reuse the FILTER_REFERENCE and HANDLER_REFERENCE export variable in the last command.
    Hope it was helpfull.

    What give the command : cimsub -ls -v

    Nice !!!
    We try the X-IBM-Notification-URL parameter with a simply HTTP URL (no HTTPS) ... it doesn't work. We open a ticket for this problem.
    I hope you have more chance for other use.
