Try running tso in batch. Something like below: //JOBLIB DD DISP=SHR,DSN=db2hlq.SDSNLOAD //STEP1 EXEC PGM=IKJEFT01,DYNAMNBR=20 //SYSTSPRT DD SYSOUT=* //SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=* //SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=* //SYSTSIN DD - DSN SYSTEM(ssid) - CREATE STOGROUP CHELGRP VOLUME VPWRKD VCAT CHELCAT Perry Mayes Sent from hand held device
>>> Graham Hobbs <gho...@cdpwise.net> 26/05/2013 4:44:26 PM >>> Hi Lizette, Oiyoiyoi .. I meant DSNUTILB and DSNUPROC .. so sorry:-((. I sort of imagined that all the CICS and DB2 folk were here so didn't bother with CICS and DB2 groups. I do have a newsgroup list but it would have been interesting to see what other mainframe groups are useful except I couldn't read yours with Notepad or SPFPC60:-(. Yesterday I got my first CICS transaction working on Dallas's z/OS CICSTS42. It's accesses a VSAM KSDS file (built via IDCAMS). My next transaction is similiar but will access a DB2 table. Via reading it seems there are a) and b) preparatory one time steps to perform: a) create a stogroup b) create a database within the stogroup c) thereafter my software will add small tables to the database to be accessed by my CICS pgms. Thus the questions about using DSNUTILB or DSNUPROC for at least a) and b) above and which is best? .. and hopefully c). I have plunged in with both and failed miserably. My JCL knowledge used to be strong for batch prod jobstreams but dealing with these 'specialities' ten years later is a struggle. My baby start JCL is: //AU1 JOB (CONRAD),'GH', etc //* STOGROUP CREATE //DSNUPROC EXEC PGM=DSNUPROC,REGION=0M //STEPLIB DD DISP=SHR,DSN=DSNA10.PROCLIB //SYSIN DD * CREATE STOGROUP CHELGRP VOLUME VPWRKD VCAT CHELCAT // .. delivering .. IEW4007I FIND FOR MODULE DSNUPROC FAILED BECAUSE DIRECTORY ENTRY IS NOT VALID FOR A LOAD MODULE. CSV003I REQUESTED MODULE DSNUPROC NOT FOUND CSV028I ABEND806-04 JOBNAME=AU1 STEPNAME=DSNUPROC .. checked IEW4007I but both the steplib and proc exist .. yuk. Next, with the same JCL, will be CREATE DATABASE CHELBAS1 STOGROUP CHELGRP CCSID EBCDIC Thanks for the quick answer!
