Identify FILES and Parmlib Data Sets

Several functions of CA Disk must know the names of the FILES data set and parmlib data set used within the function. The names of these data sets are made available to CA Disk through the SET command.

Additionally, indicators can be set to allow the use of preallocated FILES and parmlib data sets. Alternate FILES and parmlib data sets can by allocating them before executing the desired function.

To provide the correct data set names and permit alternate data sets to be preallocated, use the following utility. A copy of this JCL can be found in the member name DMSSET in the CCUWJCL library.

//MODIFY   EXEC PGM=ADSMI002,PARM=ADSDM338
//STEPLIB   DD  DISP=SHR,DSN=CA.DISK.LOADLIB
//SYSLIB    DD  DISP=SHR,DSN=CA.DISK.LOADLIB
//ABNLDUMP  DD  DUMMY
//CMDPRINT  DD  SYSOUT=A
//MSGPRINT  DD  SYSOUT=A
//PARMLIB   DD  DISP=SHR,DSN=CA.DISK.PARMLIB
//SYSPRINT  DD  SYSOUT=A
//SYSUDUMP  DD  SYSOUT=A
//SYSIN     DD  *

DMSSET updates the load module DMSPARMS. Run the DMSSET job against your CA Disk SMP/E target library. This job prevents problems with the module being overlaid when copying from target to production libraries.
