PSB requirements

This topic describes the PSB requirements for FABCUR9.

The following requirements apply to the PSB being used by the FABCUR9.

  1. The language specified in the PSB by the LANG= parameter can be ASSEM, COBOL, PL/I, or PASCAL.
  2. If the I/O PCB is present, the utility will take checkpoints; otherwise it will not.
    • An I/O PCB is always present in BMP execution.
    • The I/O PCB will be present in DLI/DBB execution if CMPAT=YES is coded.
    • The I/O PCB will not be present in DLI/DBB execution if CMPAT=NO (the default) is taken.
  3. The target DB PCB for the database being loaded can be anywhere in the PSB; however, the first occurrence of the DB PCB for this database will be used.
  4. PROCOPT requirements:
    • For an initial load of an empty HDAM or HIDAM database, the PSB must be coded with PROCOPT=L or PROCOPT=LS for all of the target segments.
    • For an initial load of an empty DEDB, the PSB must be coded with PROCOPT=A for all of the target segments.
