    The IMS High Performance Fast Path Utilities for z/OS User's
    Guide Volume 1: Fast Path Online Tools Version 3 Release 2
    (SC18-9871-03).
    ----------------------------------------------------------------
    Chapter 1. Introduction
    1.1 Overview of FPO
    1.1.2 Terminology
    A new abbreviation should be added:
    ITKB
      Represents IMS Tools Knowledge Base
    
    A new section should be added as follows:
    1.1.x Support for IMS Tools Knowledge Base
    
    IMS Tools Knowledge Base is an IMS Tools product that provides
    common services for storing and viewing reports that are
    generated by other IMS Tools products.
    
    To fully participate in the IMS Tools Knowledge Base information
    management environment, each IMS tool must be enabled to
    communicate with the IMS Tools Knowledge Base server. An enabled
    IMS tool can automatically send its generated reports to the IMS
    Tools Knowledge Base repository. This version of FPO is enabled
    to participate in the IMS Tools Knowledge Base environment.
    
    You must perform three configuration procedures to allow FPO to
    send reports to the IMS Tools Knowledge Base repository:
    
    1. Register IMS HPFPU with IMS Tools Knowledge Base
    
    The registration process defines IMS HPFPU reports to IMS Tools
    Knowledge Base so that IMS HPFPU reports can be stored in the
    IMS Tools Knowledge Base repository.
    
    Use the IMS Tools Knowledge Base product administration utility
    (HKTAPRA0) to register IMS HPFPU with IMS Tools Knowledge Base
    as described in the IMS Tools Knowledge Base User's Guide
    (SC18-9963). Follow the instructions in the topic "Registering
    IMS Tools products by using the default definition table".
    
    To register IMS HPFPU with IMS Tools Knowledge Base, you need to
    submit the following job. Before submitting the job, add a job
    card and change the parameter in italics to meet your
    site's requirements.
    
    //DEFREPDF EXEC PGM=HKTAPRA0,PARM='ITKBSRVR=servername'
    //STEPLIB  DD DISP=SHR,DSN=HKT.SHKTLOAD
    //SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
    //OUTRPT   DD SYSOUT=*
    //SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=*
    //LOGFILE  DD SYSOUT=*
    //SYSIN    DD *
      ADDPROD  PRODUCTID=DF,RELEASE=030200,RETENTION=(30,30),
               TABLE=HFPGPRS0,REPLACE=YES
    //
    
    2. Verify communication with the IMS Tools Knowledge Base server
    
    Verify that the systems that you will run FPO on will have XCF
    communications with the IMS Tools Knowledge Base server and
    that the FPQ subsystem is started on each of these systems.
    In the IMS Tools Knowledge Base User's Guide, refer to the
    topic "Defining IMS Tools KB to the operating system".
    
    3. Request that FPO write reports to the IMS Tools Knowledge
    Base repository
    
    Specify the name of the IMS Tools Knowledge Base server in the
    ITKBSRVR parameter of the FPO control statement (FPXIN).
    
    This parameter directs FPO to communicate to the IMS Tools
    Knowledge Base server so that FPO reports can be stored in the
    IMS Tools Knowledge Base repository.
    
    Syntax and configuration instructions for the FPXIN control
    statement are located in ITKBLOAD on page xx and ITKBSRVR on
    page xx.
    
    After completing these configuration procedures, you can use the
    ISPF user interface to view, print, and manage reports that are
    generated by FPO and that are stored in the IMS Tools Knowledge
    Base repository.

    2.1.7 Software requirements
    4.1.7 Software requirements
    5.1.5 Software requirements
    6.1.2 Software requirements
    
    The following lines should be added:
    
    .IMS Tools Knowledge Base for z/OS, Version 1 Release 1
    (5655-R34), if ITKBSRVR=servername is specified.
    ----------------------------------------------------------------
    The following lines should be added in the following sections:
    2.3.3 Utility control statements
          before ANALYZE control statement
    4.3.6 Utility control statements - original expansion
          before EXTEND control statement
    5.3.2 Utility control statements
          before REORG control statement
    6.3.3 Utility control statements
          before DMACPRT control statement
    
    . GLOBAL control statement
    
    The GLOBAL control statement defines the job step keyword
    values. If specified, GLOBAL must be the first command in
    the input stream.
    ----------------------------------------------------------------
    A new section should be added before the following sections:
    2.3.3.2 ANALYZE statement
    4.3.6.1 EXTEND statement
    5.3.2.1 REORG statement
    6.3.3.1 DMACPRT statement
    
    x.x.x.x GLOBAL statement
    
    The GLOBAL control statement specifies the job step keyword
    values. This control statement is optional.
    
    The keywords that are associated with the GLOBAL command are:
    .DBRC
    .ITKBLOAD
    .ITKBSRVR
    
    x.x.x.x.1 DBRC keyword
    
    The DBRC keyword is used to specify whether the report that
    is stored to the ITKB repository is associated with a RECON.
    
    This keyword is optional.
    
    The variable fields are defined as follows:
    
    NO
        Store the report in the ITKB repository that is not
        associated with a RECON.
    
        You can specify just N rather than NO.
    
    YES
        Store the report in the ITKB repository that is
        associated with a RECON.
    
        You can specify just Y rather than YES.
    
    Default: NO, if the DBRC keyword is not specified.
    
    x.x.x.x.2 ITKBLOAD keyword
    
    The ITKBLOAD keyword is used to specify the name of the
    load module library for ITKB.
    
    This keyword is optional. It is used only when
    ITKBSRVR=servername is specified. If you do not explicitly
    specify this keyword, ITKBLOAD=*NO will be used and FPO
    attempts to load an ITKB module from the STEPLIB libraries.
    
    The variable fields are defined as follows:
    
    *NO
        The ITKB modules are loaded from the private library or
        the system library of the job.
    
    dsname
        Specifies the name of the load module library for ITKB.
    
    Default: *NO, if the ITKBLOAD keyword is not specified.
    
    x.x.x.x.3 ITKBSRVR keyword
    
    The ITKBSRVR keyword is used to specify the name of the
    ITKB server.
    
    This keyword is optional.
    
    The variable fields are defined as follows:
    
    *NO
        FPO does not store reports in the ITKB repository.
    
    servername
        FPO stores reports in the ITKB Output repository of
        the specified server.
    
    Default: *NO, if the ITKBSRVR keyword is not specified.

    User Response: Specify the GLOBAL command on the first line of
    FPXIN, and rerun the job.
    --------------------------------------------------------------
    FPX0273I The ITKBLOAD parameter was ignored because no server
    name was specified.
    
    Explanation: An IMS Tools KB load module library was specified
    for the ITKBLOAD keyword parameter, but the specification was
    ignored because no server name was specified for the
