Creating job profiles

Job profiles combine the functionality of object profiles and utility profiles. Job profiles allow you to specify an Object Profile and Utility Profile. Job profiles are functionally identical to application profiles from earlier releases of IMS Recovery Expert.

Procedure

  1. Specify 4 on the Application Operations Menu panel (BSY$APMN) and press Enter.
    Figure 1. Enter Profile Selection Criteria panel
                Enter Profile Selection Criteria            
         Profile Like  *________________________________            
         Creator Like  *_____________                               
         SSID    Like  *____                                   

    On the Enter Profile Selection Criteria panel, you can limit the profiles that are listed. Specify a profile name, profile creator name, or SSID to do so. You can use the asterisk (*) as a wildcard character for any and all fields. Press Enter when finished. The Job Profile Display panel will be displayed.

  2. Specify C on the Cmd line and press Enter.

    The Job Profile Display panel may be pre-populated by old application profiles. You must update these profiles by specifying U on the Cmd line to upgrade them before they are usable.

  3. On the Enter New Application Profile Data panel specify a Profile Name, Description, and IMS System.

       Share Option U  (Update, View only, No access)
