CA IDMS/DB Reorg Processing--VSE/ESA Environment

The following example illustrates a simple way to execute CA IDMS/DB Reorg in a VSE/ESA environment.

It shows the JCL needed to validate parameters, to obtain the Audit/Analysis Report for estimating work files, and to reorganize your database in a VSE/ESA environment. The example is divided into these four processes:

  1. Defining the areas which are being copied, by running IDMSBCF.
  2. Gathering information, by running CA IDMS/DB Reorg to validate parameters and to obtain the Audit/Analysis Report.
  3. Allocating the work files.
  4. Reorganizing the database.

See Summary of Procedures for Operating CA IDMS/DB Reorg for a summary of the procedures. The summary includes the optional STOPAFTER and RESTART parameters, which allow you to run CA IDMS/DB Reorg in increments.

SAMPJCL members USREXEC1.S/USREXEC1.S, USREXEC2.S/USREXEC2.S, USREXEC3.S/USREXEC3.S, and USREXEC4.S/USREXEC4.S provide examples of JCL for executing CA IDMS/DB Reorg.
