Task M9C0I027: Convert CMS Databases to VSAM Databases

This task converts CMS databases to VSAM databases. If your site is not sharing databases, press PF5 to bypass this task.

To complete this task:

  1. Select task M9C0I027 from the Task Selection Menu.

    The following panel appears:

    M9C0I027           Convert CMS Databases to VSAM Databases      CA ACF2 for z/VM
====>                                                                          
                                                                               
                                                                               
                                                                               
             This step will convert your  CMS databases to  VSAM.              
             You need to perform this  step only if you are using              
             shared database support (i.e., multiple CPUs sharing              
             a common database).                                               
                                                                               
                                                                               
                         Press PF2 to perform this task                        
                         Press PF5 to bypass this task
