IMS Administration Tool 1.1 (APAR PH66714/PTF UO04002)
| IMS Tools product or component | IMS Administration Tool 1.1 |
|---|---|
| Name | Automated discovery and registration of IMS catalog alias names |
| Description | IMS Administration Tool automatically discovers the alias name of the IMS catalog and stores it in the RECON ID information in the IMS Tools Knowledge Base repository. This process runs in the background when you create or update an IMS group using the Manage IMS groups ISPF panel. As a result, you are not required to register alias names manually. After an IMS group is created or updated, IMS Tools Base can retrieve the alias name from the RECON ID.
To enable this enhancement, APAR PH65440 (PTF UO03759) must be applied to IMS Tools Base. |

| Description | This APAR enhances the IMS SPUFI (ISPUFI) function of IMS Administration Tool ISPF interface to support processing of SQL statements with a Java application.
ISPUFI is a feature to query and update IMS data by SQL statements. This feature allows you to directly interact with an IMS system by developing and running interactive SQL statements and reviewing the resulting output. You can issue SQL statements SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE to view, insert, update, and delete data in IMS databases. SQL statements are executed in a COBOL application (IMS BMP application) or Java application (IMS JBP application). To execute SQL statements in a Java application, you must apply the PTF for this APAR and set up a Java environment. For more information, see the IMS Administration Tool 1.1 User's Guide and Reference. Enhancements to ISPUFI for the IMS Administration Tool web interface are provided by APAR PH19836. Both ISPF and web interface APARs should be installed at the same time. Also, IMS Tools Setup of IMS Tools Base has been enhanced by APAR PH19926 to support generating customized JCL members for setting up the Java environment for IMS SPUFI JBP. |

When the IMS management of ACBs is enabled, IMS Online Reorganization Facility can refer to database definitions in the IMS catalog directory instead of the DBD library. IMS catalog definition is retrieved from either:
The following conditions must be satisfied to use IMS-managed ACBs:
The following libraries must be in the STEPLIB concatenation of the IMS Online Reorganization Facility job:
If you want to change the database definition in a reorganization job, you can specify the NEWDBD(*STAGING) keyword to have IMS Online Reorganization Facility reload the database using pending database definitions in the IMS catalog staging data sets. The DFSACBPD DD statement is not needed. For details, see the IMS Online Reorganization Facility User's Guide. The PTFs of the following APARs are required to use the new functions:

IMS Administration Tool 1.1 (APAR PH11257/PTF UI63964)
| IMS Tools product or component | IMS Administration Tool 1.1 |
|---|---|
| Name | Support concatenating multiple IMS Administration Tool load libraries |
| Description |
Before this APAR is applied, only a single IMS Administration Tool load library data set was supported when IMS Administration Tool runs in the IMS Tools Base Distributed Access Infrastructure (DAI) Tools Access Server (TAS) and Subordinate TAS (SOT) address space. This is because only one load library can be defined to the SATYLOAD DD statement during the product registration to the IMS Tools Base IMS Tools Knowledge Base repository. Due to this limitation, users had to store customized modules, such as ATY#OPTS and ATYSTFWD, in the same data set where the IMS Administration Tool product load modules reside. This APAR enhances IMS Administration Tool to support a separate user customized load module library and have it concatenated at runtime. This APAR changes z/OS back-end modules that run in the IMS Tools Base DAI SOT address space and behind the ISPF user interface. Users who use the web interface must apply APAR PH11245 in addition to this APAR. Complete the following steps to store customized modules in a separate data set and have it concatenated at runtime:
After this APAR is applied, users can still use single load library, SATYLOAD. If users already have customized the SATYLOAD load library and do not wish to separate customized modules into a different data set, they do not need to take any action. This APAR changes the following SATYSAMP sample JCL members to refer to the SYSLOAD data set: ATY$TSTA, ATY$TSTP, ATYASMOP, ATYASMSF, ATYBATCH, ATYBATRX, ATYBMP, ATYBMPR, ATYDLI. If you have already customized sample JCL members, you must change them again after applying this APAR. This APAR must be applied together with the following APARs:
