The MIMIX Model Switch Framework is a set of programs and commands that provide a consistent framework for performing planned or unplanned switches in environments that do not use application groups. The commands can be used in Assure MIMIX. Typically, a Certified MIMIX Consultant assists you in setting up the programs and the switching environment.
MIMIX Model Switch Framework provides the underlying support for the MIMIX Switch Assistant™ interface accessible from option 5 on the MIMIX Basic Main Menu. These preferred user interfaces are ready to use after a default switch framework is configured and is identified to MIMIX in the Default model switch framework (DFTMSF) policy for the installation.
Although not preferred, you can also use the MIMIX Model Switch Framework in these ways:
-
Manually by running the RUNMON command on the associated group monitor, or using Option 18, Run User Program on the Work with Switch Definitions display.
-
Manually by running the Run Switch Framework (RUNSWTFWK) command.
-
Automatically (triggered by associated monitors).
