I have never used ISMF in batch so someone else will have to discuss if it is possible to activate an SCDS that way.
The simplest way to activate an SCDS in batch is to submit a step that issues the SETSMS SCDS operator command. It can be done by JCL, various CBT utilities, or a small homegrown assembler program that runs authorized. :>: -----Original Message----- :>: From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:IBM-MAIN@bama.ua.edu] On :>: Behalf Of af dc :>: Sent: Tuesday, May 29, 2012 3:55 AM :>: To: IBM-MAIN@bama.ua.edu :>: Subject: Re: DFSMS SG POOL Enablement :>: :>: thx for your help, regarding your "1 - update an SCDS and then activate :>: it" :>: how can I do that activation in batch ?? :>: I run what I think it was correct and it didn't work. pool remained :>: disable :>: for all hosts.
