Adapting Application Job Names

Use the notes that you took during the planning exercise to change the default job names (where necessary) to the real job names.

Then, either delete or unlink those applications that are not used on the target system.

Select 6 on the Option line and press Enter. The Entry Name Selection panel for entry type Application is displayed.

To change a job name for an application, enter AI next to that application and press Enter. A panel is shown as follows:

For example, if the VTAM® job name is NET on the target system, change the value of the Job Name field in the panel appropriately. If you press PF3 twice, you return to the Entry Name Selection panel.

Follow the same steps if you want to enter the JCL Procedure Name.

To delete an application you do not need, enter D next to it and press Enter. You see a confirmation panel and press Enter again. However, if you want to use this application in the future, unlink it. The definitions are kept in the policy but the Customization Dialog does not create a resource for the application. You can link such an application any time later again.

To unlink an application you do not need, enter W next to it and press Enter. You notice that the application is linked to a group called BASE_SYS. Enter M (for reMove) next to it and press PF3.
