CASCMM--Define Sandboxes Using Supplied Processor GSANDBOX

You can use the supplied sandbox generate processor, GSANDBOX, to create sandbox subsystems.

To define sandbox subsystems using supplied processor simply add an element of type SANDBOX to the DEV environment of the APPL@SBS subsystem in APPL@SYS system. This invokes the GSANDBOX processor. The content of the element is immaterial, only the element name is used in the processor and that is used as the new Sandbox subsystem name. If you want to, you can supply comments or notes in the element.

The GSANDBOX processor allocates the libraries required for the new subsystem and defines the sandbox subsystem in the DEV environment, APPL@SYS system. This subsystem maps to the APPL@SBS subsystem in the QA environment, which is the next environment up the map.

As delivered, the processor allocates the same list of base, delta and processor output files with the same allocations that are used for the normal APPL@SBS subsystem (except for the SANDBOX base library). If any adjustments were made to the APPL@SBS allocations, the same adjustments need to be made to the GSANDBOX processor.

GSANDBOX first attempts to list all of the elements in the subsystem that you are trying to create. This step should fail (the subsystem should not already exist); if it does the processor allocates the subsystem files and submits a job to the internal reader to define the subsystem. If the "list element" step does not fail (return code less than 12), the processor ends with an error.
