PI46087: CLARIFICATION THAT THE JOURNAL DATASET FOR COPY AND IMSDBREFRESHARE DIFFERENT AND THE DEFAULT DDN FOR IMSDBREFRESH BE CHANGED

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as new function.

Error description

• COPY and IMSDBREFRESH commands use two different Journal
  datasets. Examples in the User Guide show different data set
  names. However, the same DDN of JOURNAL is used for both. In
  order to further differentiate the different Journal data sets
  the IMSDBREFRESH and the IMSDBCLEAN command will use JRNLDBRF as
  the DDN. COPY will retain the DDN of JOURNAL. Existing JCL
  should continue to work as the commands look for DDN JOURNAL if
  the new DDN of JRNLDBRF is not found.

  COPY and IMSDBREFRESH commands use two different Journal
  datasets. Examples in the User Guide show different data
  set names. However, the same DDN of JOURNAL is used for both,
  which can be confusing for users.
  

Problem conclusion

Temporary fix

Comments

• In order to further differentiate the different Journal data
  sets the IMSDBREFRESH and the IMSDBCLEAN command will use
  JRNLDBRF as the DDN. COPY will retain the DDN of JOURNAL.
  Existing JCL should continue to work as the commands look for
  DDN JOURNAL if the new DDN of JRNLDBRF is not found.
