Generate All Components in an Online, Server, or z/OS Load Module

Use the Generate option in the Generate Business System panel to generate all components in an online, server, or z/OS load module.

For the online load module, use the Generate Business System panel to generate:

• Procedure step and action block source. Foreign action blocks, z/OS Library action blocks, and external action block stubs are not generated.
• Dialog Manager source (optional)
• Screen manager source (online only)
• MFS source (online, IMS only)

For the server load module, use the Generate option to generate:

• Procedure step and action block source. Foreign action blocks, z/OS Library action blocks, and external action blocks are not generated.
• Server Manager source (optional)

For a z/OS Library Load Module, use the Generate option to generate action block source. Foreign action blocks that include z/OS Library action blocks that are packaged into another z/OS Library Load Module and external action blocks are not generated.

Follow these steps:

1. On the Application System Construction Menu, type 1 for the Generate business system option and press Enter.

   CA Gen displays the Generate Business System panel listing the online load modules, server load modules, z/OS Library load modules, and batch jobs in the business system.

2. Type G in the column next to the online, server, or z/OS Library module name and press Enter.

   If member names were not specified for all components in the load module, CA Gen displays the Specify Member Names panel.

   1. Use the Tab key to position the cursor at each name field and type a member name. CA Gen assigns default names to blank fields.
   2. Click Save.

      When the Present generation option is set to Yes in the Generation Options panel, CA Gen displays the Generation Options for Load Module panel.

3. Override the default values for this generation, if necessary, and press Enter to continue.

   When the Confirmation panel option is set to Yes in the Generation Options panel, CA Gen displays the Confirm Generation of Load Module panel.

4. Press Enter to accept the parameters or click Cancel to return to the options panel.

   If you selected processing in the foreground, CA Gen displays the Generation Status panel.

5. Press Enter to exit the Generation Status panel when generation completes.

   When the Present JCL option is set to Yes in the Generation Options panel and you selected processing in the background, CA Gen displays the Update JCL for Background Generation panel.

6. Make the changes and press Enter to submit the job.

   You only press Enter if the Auto-submit option on the Generation Options panel was not set to Yes.
