Sample JCL to allocate the impact analysis data set
Impact analysis data is stored in VSAM data sets. The VSAM data set names need to conform to a specific naming convention. The format of the naming convention is IAHLQ.CCZVSAM.COPY.* or IAHLQ.CCZVSAM.CALL.* or IAHLQ.CCZVSAM.SEQ.* , where IAHLQ comprises the high-level qualifiers, up to 26 total characters including periods, and the low-level qualifiers are CCZVSAM. plus the required names, as shown below. For example, for the IAHLQ ADMIN.VSAM1, the VSAM file names are the following:
ADMIN.VSAM1.CCZVSAM.CALL.BASE
ADMIN.VSAM1.CCZVSAM.CALL.BASE.DATA
ADMIN.VSAM1.CCZVSAM.CALL.BASE.INDEX
ADMIN.VSAM1.CCZVSAM.CALL.NUAIXDA1
ADMIN.VSAM1.CCZVSAM.CALL.NUAIXDA2
ADMIN.VSAM1.CCZVSAM.CALL.NUAIXIX1
ADMIN.VSAM1.CCZVSAM.CALL.NUAIXIX2
ADMIN.VSAM1.CCZVSAM.CALL.NUAIX1
ADMIN.VSAM1.CCZVSAM.CALL.NUAIX2
ADMIN.VSAM1.CCZVSAM.CALL.NUPATH1
ADMIN.VSAM1.CCZVSAM.CALL.NUPATH2
ADMIN.VSAM1.CCZVSAM.COPY.BASE
ADMIN.VSAM1.CCZVSAM.COPY.BASE.DATA
ADMIN.VSAM1.CCZVSAM.COPY.BASE.INDEX
ADMIN.VSAM1.CCZVSAM.COPY.NUAIXDA1
ADMIN.VSAM1.CCZVSAM.COPY.NUAIXDA2
ADMIN.VSAM1.CCZVSAM.COPY.NUAIXIX1
ADMIN.VSAM1.CCZVSAM.COPY.NUAIXIX2
ADMIN.VSAM1.CCZVSAM.COPY.NUAIX1
ADMIN.VSAM1.CCZVSAM.COPY.NUAIX2
ADMIN.VSAM1.CCZVSAM.COPY.NUPATH1
ADMIN.VSAM1.CCZVSAM.COPY.NUPATH2
ADMIN.VSAM1.CCZVSAM.SEQ.BASE
ADMIN.VSAM1.CCZVSAM.SEQ.BASE.DATA
ADMIN.VSAM1.CCZVSAM.SEQ.BASE.INDEX
This impact analysis high-level qualifier must be specified for the IA HLQ input field on the TSO Client Impact Analysis panels and in the HLQ= parameter of batch impact analysis queries. For more information about using TSO Client for impact analysis queries, see Using TSO Client for query and build requests and its subtopics. For more information about using remote build for impact analysis queries, see Using remote build for impact analysis queries and its subtopics.
We provide two kinds of sample JCL for VSAM data sets allocation. One is for VSAM RLS and the other is for VSAM non-RLS data sets.
