Runtime environment definition library members

RTEDEF library members follow a naming convention that identifies the contents of the member and whether the member applies to a specific LPAR or to all LPARs.

Use the naming convention described in the following table to store parameters in the correct members. In the LPARs column of the following table, Current means the LPAR on which the GENERATE action is performed.

Table 1. RTEDEF member naming convention
Member name Parameters LPARs Description
rte_name RTE_*

CONFIGURE_*

All Runtime environment configuration profile.

rte_name matches the value of the RTE_NAME workflow variable in the KCIVARS data set of the job that performs the Monitoring Configuration Manager action.

KC5@lpar

KD5@lpar

KI5@lpar

KN3@lpar

Kpp_* Current LPAR-specific product configuration profile created by the DISCOVER action.
Note: The DISCOVER action writes a comment member, Kpp#lpar, if a Kpp@lpar member already exists. For more information, see Members created by the DISCOVER action.
SYS@lpar Symbols Current LPAR-specific system symbols and KCIPARSE extracted variables found by the DISCOVER action.
Note: The DISCOVER action writes a comment member, SYS#lpar, if a SYS@lpar member already exists. For more information, see Members created by the DISCOVER action.
Kpp$PARM Kpp_* All Product configuration profile, where pp is the product code. For the list of supported code values, see Products supported by Configuration Manager.
Kpp$lpar Kpp_* Current LPAR-specific product configuration profile, where pp is the product code. For the list of supported code values, see Products supported by Configuration Manager.
GBL$PARM GBL_* All Global configuration profile.
GBL$lpar GBL_* Current LPAR-specific global configuration profile.
VAR$GLOB Variables All Variables configuration profile. For more information, see Variables in parameter values.
VAR$lpar Variables Current LPAR-specific variables configuration profile. For more information, see Variables in parameter values.
PCK$PARM KFJ_LOCAL_* All Configuration profile created by the PACKAGE action that contains data set high-level qualifiers and other settings for deploying to a target system. For more information, see Special considerations for SYSPLEX rollout.
PCK$lpar KFJ_LOCAL_* Current LPAR-specific configuration profile created by the PACKAGE action that contains data set high-level qualifiers and other settings for deploying to a target system. For more information, see Special considerations for SYSPLEX rollout.
trg_copy_name TRG_COPY_*

GBL_*

CONFIGURE_*

All Target copy configuration profile. trg_copy_name matches the value of the TRG_COPY_NAME workflow variable in the KCIVARS DD statement of the job that performs the Monitoring Configuration Manager action with option TRGCOPY.

The following figure illustrates an example of the RTEDEF library member naming and hierarchy. Depending on your configuration, there might be more or fewer members in your RTEDEF. The complete list of members is provided in the previous table.

Note:
If a product has parameters with different prefixes, use the Kpp from the corresponding CONFIGURE_* parameter as the member name prefix for all the parameters. For example:
  • Store all Db2 agent parameters, KD2_* and KD5_*, in KD5* members, to match the CONFIGURE_DB2_AGENT_KD5 parameter.
  • Store all KC2_* and KC5_* parameters in KC5* members.
  • Store all KI2_* and KI5_* parameters in KI5* members.
  • Store all KDF_* and KS3_* parameters in KS3* members.
