Generating customization jobs

To generate customization jobs for a product or a component and any associated DB2® entries, issue the GENERATEALL command, or select one or more DB2 entries on which to customize a product or a component.

Procedure

Generate the customization jobs by using one of the following methods.

If you want to generate customization jobs at the product or component level and for any associated DB2 entries, issue the GENERATEALL command, and press Enter.
If you want to generate customization jobs for specific DB2 entries, select the DB2 entries by specifying the G line command against them, and press Enter. The available DB2 entries are in the associated list in the Associated DB2 Entries and Parameter Status section.

Important: Regenerating customization jobs will replace any existing jobs, including jobs that you might have manually modified after they were generated.

Results

If the status is Incomplete or Discovered for product or component parameters, LPAR parameters, or DB2 parameters, Tools Customizer automatically starts an editing session for the types of parameters that are required. The session continues until the panel for each type of required parameter has been displayed.

What to do next

If an automatic editing session is started, accept the displayed parameter values or define values for the required types of parameters, select optional parameters, tasks, or steps for your environment, and save the parameter values. Otherwise, the customization jobs are generated, and you can submit them.

Tip: If the customization jobs are generated, but you are not ready to submit them, you can see them later by issuing the JOBLIST command on the Customizer Workplace panel. The JOBLIST command displays the Finish Product Customization panel or the Finish Component Customization panel, which you can use to submit the jobs.
