They should not be deleted for any reason.
- Library
- The QSOC library holds all the objects that are used by OptiConnect:
- Programs
- Files
- Classes
- Commands
- Data areas
- Panel groups
- Subsystem Description
- Product loads
- Job Queue
- Job descriptions
- Subsystem
- The OptiConnect connection manager jobs and agent jobs run in the QSOC
subsystem unless a mode table has been configured to run under a different
subsystem. See Use of mode tables.
- Jobs
- OptiConnect has two kinds of jobs: The OptiConnect Connection Manager
job (SOCMGR) and the agent jobs (SOCAnnnnnn). The SOCMGR job manages
OptiConnect resources. There is one SOCMGR job per system. The SOCAnnnnnn job (agent) interfaces with the database on behalf of the application
system. Each of the agent jobs is a data access job that works to get data
to and from the remote system.
- Job Descriptions
- There are three job descriptions for OptiConnect: QYYCMGR, QYYCDTSU,
and QYYCSRA. QYYCMGR is the job description for the SOCMGR job. QYYCDTSU is
the job description for all SOCAnnnnnn jobs. QYYCSRA is the job description
for the ObjectConnect Save/Restore agent jobs. These job descriptions are
shipped as part of OptiConnect.
- Job Queue
- The QSOC job queue is used to submit OptiConnect jobs to the QSOC subsystem.
- Autostart job
- The SOCMGR job is automatically started when the QSOC subsystem is started.
- User Profile
- The OptiConnect Connection Manager job runs under the QSOC user profile.
The OptiConnect agent jobs run under QUSER user profile and can be changed
through the QYYCDTSU job description. The agent job's authority and library
list can also be changed through the job description QYYCDTSU. See Customize OptiConnect.
- Routing Entries
- The routing entries used in starting subsystem jobs have compare values
of QYYCDTSU, QYYCMGR, QYYCSRA, and QZDMAGNT.
- Commands
- OptiConnect commands are:
- WRKOPCACT (Work with OptiConnect Activity): Displays information on the
number of transactions and number of bytes that are read and written for both
application and database systems. It also provides information about the connection
status to other systems.
- DSPOPCLNK (Display OptiConnect Link Status): Shows pertinent link information
about multiple systems that are connected using the fiber-optic bus or HSL
environment.
- VFYOPCCNN (Verify OptiConnect Connection): Runs the OptiConnect Installation
Verification process. See Verify installation.
