Z/VSE Operation Notes:

  1. Modify the unit addresses to refer to your installation's unit(s).
  2. Specify extents and volume serial number(s) appropriate to your volume(s).

    You can estimate size if you know how many run-units is likely to match the selection criteria of your REPORT parameter statements. For each run-unit, 19 records are created for each HI-SUM request, and one record is created for each other type of request. These records are sorted and then written to the EXTRACT file. Also, each record for a BILLING request where FILE = YES or FILE = ONLY is also written to the BILLFILE.

  3. Block sizes are assigned for all files by the GSSGNCB module.
  4. This file must be the SYS002 file from the CA IDMS ARCHIVE LOG utility or the SYS020 file from CA Culprit Statistics Report 99.
  5. Ensure that a 1024K partition is available for this job.
  6. Even if you use a storage management tool such as CA-DYNAM, an ASSGN statement is required by CA IDMS Log Analyzer for every file except SORTWKnn. This assignment is necessary because CA IDMS Log Analyzer has its own device-independent support which dynamically builds a DTF based on the device type indicated by the assignment of the logical unit. The logical unit required for each work file is provided in the table in 5-2. The device may be defined with DLBL or TLBL.
