Allocate New ISET Data Sets

IMODs are contained in ISET VSAM KSDSs. The source and compiled object code, as well as control information, are included in these data sets.

You allocate ISET data sets by using either the SRVMAINT utility (recommended) or IDCAMS.

Follow these steps:

  1. Create a job using the following JCL statements:
    //STEP1   EXEC PGM=SRVMAINT
    //SYSPRINT  DD SYSOUT=*
    //SYSIN     DD *
      ALLOC_ISET  -
       NAME xxx.xxx.imod  -                  
       VOLSER volser  -                    
       CYL 2 1                             
    //
    

    A job to allocate the ISET data set is created.

    Note: For information about the ALLOC_ISET batch maintenance command, see the Reference Guide.

  2. Submit the job.

    The ISET data set is allocated.
