Starting the ISPF user interface

You use the ISPF user interface to specify control information for the IMS HP Change Accumulation Utility environment.

If you encounter problems, enter HELP on any panel for an explanation of what can be entered on the panel.

Required libraries

Before you run the ISPF user interface, ensure that the following libraries exist:

  1. smphlq.SHPCCEXE (CLISTs)
  2. smphlq.SHPCPLIB (Panels)
  3. smphlq.SHPCMLIB (ISPF messages)
  4. smphlq.SHPCLMD0 (Programs)

You do not need to change your TSO logon procedure to include any of the previous libraries.

ISPF data sets

The ISPF user interface uses the following data sets when ISPF is running.

hpchlq.CONTROL
This is a partitioned data set that is created by ISPF to contain control information for the ISPF user interface. If the data set exists, it is reused. This data set is defined with variable length unblocked records. The ISPF user interface generates the following members:
hpca-id#BAT
This member contains global control information records and run-time parameter values for each CAGROUP that is selected for processing. If you plan to run IMS HP Change Accumulation Utility as a batch job using a two-step procedure, this member must contain the CAGROUP-dependent control information for all CAGROUPS that are registered in the RECON data set.
hpca-id#CTL
This member contains records from the HPCA#BAT member and records built from the output of the GENJCL procedure. The information in this member is run dependent. For each selected CAGROUP for which change accumulation occurs, relevant records for that CAGROUP are selected from HPCA#BAT and merged with the records from the output of the GENJCL procedure.
hpca-id#GIN
This member contains input statements to the GENJCL procedure. These statements are built using information you provide through the ISPF user interface. When running IMS HP Change Accumulation Utility as a batch job using a two-step procedure, you provide the input to the GENJCL procedure through the GENJCLIN data set.
hpca-id#DRIV
This member contains the JCL to run IMS HP Change Accumulation Utility for the IMS system that is associated with the IMS HP Change Accumulation Utility ID.
hpchlq.SYSIN
This is a temporary sequential data set that is used by the ISPF user interface to hold the input to the DBRC utility program.
hpchlq.JCLOUT
This is a temporary sequential data set that is used by DBRC to output the JCL it creates.
hpchlq.SYSPRINT
This is a temporary sequential data set that is used by the ISPF user interface to hold the output from the DBRC utility program.
hpchlq.HPCTABLE
This is a partitioned data set created by the ISPF user interface to hold control information. If the data set does not exist, it is created and maintained across ISPF sessions. This data set contains the following ISPF tables:
  • HPCTIMS
  • HPCTCA
  • HPCTENV
  • HPCTSRT
  • HPCTLOG
This data set is allocated to ISPTLIB and ISPTABL using the LIBDEF facility of ISPF. You do not need to allocate the data set in your LOGON procedure.
hpchlq.SAMPLIB
This library is provided with the product and contains sample JCL.

You do not need to allocate work data sets or an ISPF tables data set because they are allocated by the ISPF user interface.

Information about the ISPF screen display

  • If your screen size is 24 X 80 and your screen shows the PFK settings, you might not see all the data IMS HP Change Accumulation Utility displays.
  • Use the ISPF command FKA OFF to remove the display of the PFK settings.

Activating the ISPF interface

Perform the following steps to activate the ISPF interface for IMS HP Change Accumulation Utility:

  1. From ISPF main menu, select Option 6: Command.

    The ISPF Command Shell is displayed.

  2. From the ISPF Command Shell, enter a command string using the following syntax:
    EX 'smphlq.SHPCCEXE(HPCC000)' 'SMPHLQ(smphlq) HPCHLQ(hpchlq) <VOL(volser)> 
    <PDSE>'

    The following list defines the keywords that are used to run the ISPF user interface:

    SMPHLQ
    Specify the high-level qualifier of your installation data set.
    HPCHLQ
    Specify the high-level qualifier for work data sets required by the ISPF user interface.
    VOLSER
    Specify the volume serial number of the DASD device on which the work data sets are allocated. This parameter is optional.
    PDSE
    Specify that PDSE data sets are to be used for the IMS HP Change Accumulation Utility work files. The default is to define the data sets as PDS. PDS data sets require periodic compression.
