Each specific deployment of a CA VM product has a definition entry in the VMSERVER NAMES file. The CMS NAMES file format is ideal for this collection of parameters, and allows native CMS tools to be used to maintain and retrieve the contents. The CA Mainframe VM Product Manager provides the VMSERVER command which displays a standard NAMES file panel for examining or updating values in an entry. Parameters in the definition entry are used in every aspect of the installation, product service, and day to day operation of the deployed product. This section will describe both parameters common to all entries, and those specific to a particular product.
