Setting up your systems

The sample policies come with 3 systems called SYS1, SYS2, and SYS3, which are all linked to one sample Group called SYSPLEX1. You now need to adapt these systems and the Group.

If you have a look at the policies that are attached to the SYS1, SYS2, and SYS3 system, you note that many of them have data that is provided. There are linked Application Groups, defined defaults, lined MVS Component automation definitions, and so on.

It is assumed that the actual system names are TST1, TST2, and TST3.

First, rename the SYS1 entry. On the Entry Name Selection screen for Systems, enter RENAME against the SYS1 system:

Press Enter and you are prompted for the new name:

ion      Entry Name             Short Description

    └────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘   

Enter the name of the first system you want to produce (TST1) and press Enter again. A progress dialog appears and when completed you are back on the Entry Name Selection panel with the system renamed:

  COMMANDS  ACTIONS  VIEW  HELP

Now, the Entry name (the name of the policy element that defines the system) is changed. To update the SYSNAME for the system, select it and edit its SYSTEM INFO policy:

  COMMANDS  HELP                                                               
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Command ===> _____________________________________________________________                                                     
             
Entry Type : System                PolicyDB Name   : SA_FULL                 
Entry Name : TST1                  Enterprise Name : SA_FULL                 
                                                                   More:     +

Image/System name. . . . SYS1                                                  

The following specifications are for MVS systems only:                         
Primary JES. . . . . . . JES2      Primary JES2/JES3 subsystem name            
System monitor time. . . 00:59     Time between monitor cycles (hh:mm or NONE) 

Type over the old SYS1 system name with TST1 to complete the rename.

If you are using JES3, you also want to type over the PRIMARY JES field with the subsystem name (automation name) of your JES3 Application. The default is JES3.

It is recommended when you change all relationships from JES2 to JES3 of the shipped sample policies you can use the INGEFUJ3 member in the SINGSAMP library to update the policy via file.

Now press PF3 and you are finished.

Then set up TST2 and TST3 following the process of TST1.
