Using ISPF line commands

Use the line commands from the Selected CA Groups panel to specify additional information to tailor GENJCL command processing or IMS HP Change Accumulation Utility processing.

Additional tailoring of GENJCL command processing can be specified for user key resolution and volume specification to hold the new CA data set.

IMS HP Change Accumulation Utility uses a set of default parameter values when processing the IMS Change Accumulation utility program. You can override these values, such as space allocation parameters for SORT work data sets, to accommodate specifics of the CAGROUP. The values you choose for the selected CAGROUP override default settings for that CAGROUP, only.

To override the default settings for a specific CAGROUP, use the following line commands:

  • To set space allocation parameters for all SORT work data sets used for the selected CAGROUP during change accumulation, use the S line command.

    This command is equivalent to using Option 3 from the SET primary command.

  • To set space allocation parameters for the log spill data sets, use the L line command.

    This command is equivalent to using Option 5 from the SET primary command.

If user keys are present in the skeletal JCL for a CAGROUP, the values for these user keys are set through the M and K line commands .

Using the END command (usually, PF3) causes the CA Spill Parameters panel to display.
