Re: Alias to Datacom

Do you mean an alias to point to a Datacom area? The area is the formatted
physical file that holds tables in Datacom.

There are other parts that make the whole database, such as the CXX
(directory). The database is a logical construct, not a physical construct.

You probably can use a dataset alias for a database area and this would be
stored in the area itself during INIT processing.

Just catalog a test area and try INIT using the alias.

I would think that would depend on how Datacom would handle it.  So since this 
is an IBM Main list, it might better to go ask on the Datacom list.

You can probably find something on communities.ca.com   for data bases.

https://communities.ca.com/community/ca-datacom-cadre

You might also want to raise a case with CA Datacom support for more answers.

Alias to Datacom

2016-12-07 Thread Peter
Hi

Does anyone use alias to point it to the DATACOM database file ?

I am thinking of implementing that.

Any suggestions ?
