Allocate Construction Libraries

The construction libraries are required to generate the source code and to install load modules. Additional data sets are required to generate MFS, batch procedures, or to keep listings.

Use the list of required DCB specifications and initial 3390 cylinder size recommendations when allocating internal libraries. All data sets are allocated as partitioned (DSORG=PO).

Note:

Blocksize for these data sets are the maximum that is allowed for the DASD device.
Do not use the same library for NCAL and executable load modules.
These data sets must be allocated as PDSEs.
If the Executable Load Module data set is included in the CICS or IMS data set concatenation, its block size must be the same or smaller than the block size of the other data sets in the concatenation list.
These data sets are only used if the Process modules marked for Compatibility option is selected. They contain the NCALs produced for the non-DLL compiled RI triggers or Action Blocks.
These data sets are only used if the Dynamically Link RI Triggers option is set to Yes.

The USERLIB job allocates these libraries that are required for the test:

NCAL: Business System NCAL Load Modules
LISTINGS: COBOL Compiled Listings (applications)
COBOL: COBOL Source (applications)
DBRM (for DB2 only): DB2 DBRM Modules (applications)
LOAD: Executable Load Modules (applications)
BATCHLIB: Executable Batch Dynamic Action Block Library for dynamic batch modules.
MFS (for IMS only): Generated MFS Source (applications)
JCL: Generated Batch JCL
INSTC: Installation Control (application modules)
BNDCTL: Binder control cards (application modules)
BATCHBND: Batch Binder control cards for dynamic batch modules.
RILIST: RI Trigger COBOL Compiled Listings
RICOBOL: RI Trigger COBOL Source
RIDBRM (for DB2 only): RI Trigger DBRM Modules
RIINSTC: RI Trigger Installation Control
RIBNDCTL: RI trigger binder control cards
RIBATBND: RI trigger batch binder control cards
RINCAL: RI Trigger NCAL Modules
NCALC: Compatibility NCAL Load Modules
RIEXEC: RI Trigger Executable Load Modules (Dynamic RI - DLL)
RIBATLIB: RI Trigger Executable Batch Load Modules (Dynamic RI - DLL)
LISTINGC: Compatibility COBOL Compiled Listings
RINCALC: Compatibility RI Trigger NCAL Modules
RILISTC: Compatibility RI Trigger COBOL Compiled Listings

Edit USERLIB and submit the job to allocate the libraries in this table.

To edit USERLIB:

Compare the names and block sizes to your site's standards.
Remove unwanted DD statements.

Note: You can make a version of USERLIB available to others doing code generation to assist them in allocating their libraries.
