STAT.DSN.BASE | STAT.FILE.PAIRS

Edit online

The STAT.DSN.BASE parameter specifies the high-level qualifiers for the statistics files cluster names. Use any valid z/OS data set name qualifiers for this parameter. The high-level qualifier can range from 1–37 characters. The syntax for this parameter is as follows:

STAT.DSN.BASE = dsname base

The STAT.FILE.PAIRS parameter indicates the number of file pairs to use. You must specify at least two file pairs. The number of file pairs ranges from 2–20. The syntax for this parameter is as follows:

STAT.FILE.PAIRS = number

The two parameters specify the statistics file pair list. During DTF initialization, IBM® Connect:Direct® uses these two values to develop the data set names for the statistics files. The low-level qualifier, ESDSnn, is added to the base data set name to form the names of the ESDS clusters. In ESDSnn, nn is the number that identifies the position of the file pair in the list. IBM Connect:Direct uses KSDSnn as the qualifier to form the names of the KSDS clusters.

The following example uses both STAT.DSN.BASE and STAT.FILE.PAIRS to specify the statistics file pair list.

STAT.DSN.BASE = CD.STATS          /* STATISTICS DSNAME BASE  */
STAT.FILE.PAIRS = 3                  /* NUMBER OF PAIRS         */

The example in the previous figure generates the following file pair list.

CD.STATS.ESDS01      /* FIRST FILE PAIR ... ESDS  */
CD.STATS.KSDS01      /* FIRST FILE PAIR ... KSDS  */
CD.STATS.ESDS02      /* SECOND FILE PAIR ... ESDS */
CD.STATS.KSDS02      /* SECOND FILE PAIR ... KSDS */
CD.STATS.ESDS03      /* THIRD FILE PAIR ... ESDS  */
CD.STATS.KSDS03      /* THIRD FILE PAIR ... KSDS  */
