Create Legacy IMS Sample Databases

Edit online

This procedure uses the IMS™ DBDs and the associated PSBs to create IMS datasets. These IMS sample files are required only if you are installing Move or Compare for IMS, VSAM, and Sequential Data. Before you perform this step, the plan must be fully bound.

When you select the option to create the IMS sample databases, the following panel is displayed.

---------------  Create Legacy Sample IMS Database Files  -------------------
COMMAND ===> 

The sample IMS Database consists of the following:
   DBDs:                        PSBs:
     FOPDEPDB  FOPDEPIX           FOPDEPPA  FOPDEPPR
     FOPJOBDB  FOPJOBIX           FOPJOBPA  FOPJOBPR

The following datasets will be created:
   FOP.VBR3M0.FOPDEMO.FOPDEPDB		FOP.VBR3M0.FOPDEMO2.FOPDEPDB
   FOP.VBR3M0.FOPDEMO.FOPDEPIX		FOP.VBR3M0.FOPDEMO2.FOPDEPIX
   FOP.VBR3M0.FOPDEMO.FOPJOBDB		FOP.VBR3M0.FOPDEMO2.FOPJOBDB
   FOP.VBR3M0.FOPDEMO.FOPJOBIX		FOP.VBR3M0.FOPDEMO2.FOPJOBIX

Enter the volume name that the IMS files should be created on:

               Volume Name ===> 

Press ENTER to Create the Samples

The following prompt is presented:

Volume Name: Volume on which the IMS files are to be placed.

This step creates the following IMS datasets, named:


qual1.qual2.FOPDEMO.FOPDEPDB
qual1.qual2.FOPDEMO.FOPDEPIX
qual1.qual2.FOPDEMO.FOPJOBDB
qual1.qual2.FOPDEMO.FOPJOBIX  
qual1.qual2.FOPDEMO2.FOPDEPDB
qual1.qual2.FOPDEMO2.FOPDEPIX
qual1.qual2.FOPDEMO2.FOPJOBDB
qual1.qual2.FOPDEMO2.FOPJOBIX

The file qualifiers are obtained from the FOPCUST CLIST.

Press ENTER to create the Legacy IMS files on the specified volume, or use END to bypass the process.
