Run CAIENF under the Master Subsystem

Some CA Technologies products require initialization before JES and require CAIENF to be started with SUB=MSTR.

Note: Running CAIENF with SUB=MSTR reduces diagnostic capability. Only run CAIENF with SUB=MSTR if there is a substantial benefit from doing so. As an alternative, you can use CAIENF auto commands. For example, to ensure that CAIENF initializes before the beginning of batch job activity, you can define JES initiators as drained. Then, in the CAIENF auto commands member, you can use a $SI command to start the desired initiators.

Follow these steps:

1. Ensure that a copy of the CAW0PROC(ENF) member, that is updated to suit the requirements of your site, is in a system proclib and not in a proclib that is defined to JES. Review the following DD statements:
   • When running CAIENF under the MASTER subsystem, you cannot direct SYSPRINT to SYSOUT=*. Specify a SYSPRINT DD DUMMY statement or, if you want the SYSPRINT output, direct SYSPRINT to a permanent data set.
   • If CAICCI is installed, a TRCPRINT DD statement is required. It has the same restrictions as SYSPRINT.
2. Ensure that all data sets accessed using the ENF procedure are cataloged in the master catalog.
3. Use the START command to start ENF before JES at the next IPL. For example:

   START ENF,SUB=MSTR
