CONVERT example: Preparing a staging data set before converting a database when the IMS management of ACBs is enabled
This example shows JCL statements to prepare a staging data set before converting a database in an IMS managed ACBs environment.
- Step 1: Generate HALDB DBD source
-
- To generate DBD source for the converted HALDB, specify the DBDSOURCE parameter to the ANALYZEPART command.
- The DFSDF(CAT) parameter in IHCSYSIN and the PROCLIB DD statement specify the DFSDFCAT PROCLIB member that contains the IMS catalog definition.
- If you include the IMS Catalog Definition exit routine (DFS3CDX0) in the STEPLIB concatenation, you do not need to specify the DFSDF parameter and the PROCLIB DD statement.
- The SGLXLOAD library of IBM® IMS Tools Base must be in the STEPLIB concatenation.
- The library containing the DFSMDA member with TYPE=CATDSHLQ statement must be in the STEPLIB concatenation if the DFSMDA member is used to specify the high-level qualifier of the IMS catalog system data sets.
- The IMS DD statement is not needed.
- Step 2: Run the DBDGEN utility
-
- Run the DBDGEN utility by using the DBD source generated in step 1 as input.
- You can use a temporary DBDLIB.
- Step 3: Run the ACBGEN utility
-
- Run the ACBGEN utility to generate ACB members, which will be used as input for the IMS Catalog Populate utility.
- Step 4: Create a staging data set
-
- To create a staging data set, run the IMS Catalog Populate utility. For details, see the topic "IMS Catalog Populate utility (DFS3PU00)" in IMS System Utilities.
