Allocating Data Store data sets
At this stage of your installation, use the EQQPCS04 member generated by the EQQJOBS installation aid. It is contained in the output library specified on the CREATE DATA STORE SAMPLES panel (EQQJOBS5). Submit the EQQPCS04 job to define and initialize the Data Store VSAM files.
The Data Store VSAM files can be of three
types:
- Unstructured
- The type associated to EQQUDFxx; used to save joblogs. These files are allocated only when the Joblog Retrieval option in panel EQQJOBS7 is set to Y. The UDF data sets (DDNAME EQQUDFNN) are used only by the data store started task.
- Structured
- The type associated to EQQSDFxx; used to save structured joblog information. These files are required. The EQQSDFXX data sets allocated for the data store have the same structure as the EQQSDFXX data sets used by the controller but they are a different set.
- KSDS
- The type used for EQQPKIxx and EQQSKIxx. The EQQPKIXX and EQQSKIXX data sets allocated for the data store have the same structure as the structure of the EQQPKIXX and EQQSKIXX data sets used by the controller but they are a different set.
| Sample | DD Name | Rec. Type | Attributes | Share Option | Keys | Record Size | data set |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| EQQPCS04 | EQQPKIxx | KSDS | UNIQUE INDEXED | 1, 3 | 34 0 | 77 77 | Primary Index |
| EQQPCS04 | EQQSDFxx | LINEAR | N/A | 2 , 3 | N/A | N/A | Data files |
| EQQPCS04 | EQQSKIxx | KSDS | UNIQUE INDEXED | 1, 3 | 38 0 | 76 32000 | Secondary Index |
| EQQPCS04 | EQQUDFxx | LINEAR | N/A | 2 , 3 | N/A | N/A | Data files |
