Naming conventions for data-sharing environments

If you decide to use data sharing and have additional databases to control with DBRC, you must review the data set naming conventions established for database data sets.

Consider indicating that a database participates in data sharing using the chosen resource names. An application program that accesses a shared database might also have the PSB name indicate a read-only property.

Review naming conventions for the following resources:

Databases, their DD names and data set names
Image copy and change accumulation data set names
Online log data sets (OLDSs)
System log data sets (SLDSs)
PSB and application program names
Transaction codes
Identifying names for IMS systems and IRLMs
