Installation method 2: Editing the BMP JCL jobs

To use this method, you need to edit all the BMP JCL jobs. This method requires that you make JCL changes to all the BMP jobs that access databases processed by the RPCR feature. Use this method if you do not want to modify the IMS region controller module.

About this task

  • This method does not relink the DFSRRC00 module into any load library, not even IMS.RESLIB.
  • If you do not modify all BMP jobs and steps, BMP pausing is not done for the BMPs for which you did not modify the JCL.

Procedure

  1. Modify and run SFRXSAMP(IROBMP2) to link and create the IRORRC00 module.
  2. Change all BMP JCL as follows:
    1. Add the load library that you used as your SYSLMOD in the IROBMP2 install job as the first data set in your STEPLIB concatenation. For example:
      //STEPLIB DD DSN=your.userlib.containing.IRORRC00
    2. Modify the IMS region controller execution module on the EXEC statement of each BMP step. For example:
      //stepname EXEC PGM=IRORRC00
      instead of:
      //stepname EXEC PGM=DFSRRC00
