Process 3--Allocating Work Files

The CA IDMS/DB Reorg PAGUTIL file needs to be VSAM.

This process allocates all of the work files to disk. When you are allocating space for the work files, you must include DLBL statements for every work file used by CA IDMS/DB Reorg and EXTENT and ASSGN statements for each file's corresponding logical unit. If you are reorganizing an index area sorted by db-key, after the OPTALLOC step, you must allocate space for IIXEXOL, IIXSRKY, and IIXEXTR. See Target or Distribution source library member USRIDCAM.
