Upgrading to New Releases of Supporting Products

Modifying or upgrading supporting products may affect CA Dataquery. Before upgrading, carefully study the changes from the prior version and the upgrade procedures for each of the products to gauge the impact on CA Dataquery. See the DQSAM01 through DQSAM11 sample members. For information on the sample programs (sample assemblies and jobs), See the CA Datacom Installation Guide for information on the sample members that contain job control statements which modify the CA Dataquery environment and run the batch utility programs.

Procedures

Upgrade procedures for each product can also be found in the Source Library. Use the following as a check list when upgrading the environment in which CA Dataquery operates.

CICS

DQDECPR in the DQSAM11 member is the only CA Dataquery module that contains command level CICS. When a new version of CICS is installed, reassemble the DQDECPR module and link edit it to produce a modified DQDECPR.

When a new version of CICS is installed, ensure that the PPT and PCT system tables include entries for CA Dataquery. Ensure that the CA Datacom CICS Services is installed and operational.

CA Datacom/DB

When upgrading CA Datacom/DB, follow the instructions distributed with CA Datacom/DB for reloading the CA Dataquery database and reassembling the Master Lists and File Tables.

CA Datacom Datadictionary

If the database ID for CA Datacom Datadictionary is changed, change the coding of the DDDBID= parameter of the DQOPTLST macro (see Tailoring the CA Dataquery System Option Table). Then reassemble and relink edit DQOPTLST with the new parameter coding for DDDBID=.
