CICS VSAM SDT Install

Use the following to create the VSAM files when using VSAM SDT as the temporary location for start data. Change the data set name to the DSN you are using. You can change the DDNAME if you make the corresponding update in TIRMQTDZ. Adjust MAXNUMRECS as your installation requires. Do not use a CICS maintained table. Use only a USER maintained table. Use values specific to your installation for YOUR.TEMP.DATASET in the DSNAME and CLUSTER parameters.

Run DFHCSDUP using the following deck:
