LIB/TSO Interface › LIB/TSO Commands › LIBADD

LIBADD

The LIBADD command adds a new module to a CA Librarian master file. The module must exist as a cataloged sequential data set or as a member of a cataloged PDS.

This command has the following format:

{LIBADD}
{LIBA }

Required Operands

{module-name}
{pds-name(member)}

module-name

Specifies the name to assign to the module you are adding to the master file. If you specify a module name but do not use the TSODSN option to identify the data set to add, the LIBADD command constructs the data set name for you, using the specified module name as the user-supplied name and prefixing it with your user-prefix.

The descriptive-qualifier is derived from either the type option entry or the system default. For example, if you enter LIBADD MYMOD,ASM, the resulting data set name is user-prefix.MYMOD.ASM.

Note: You can let the command derive the name of the data set to add only if the data set is a sequential data set whose name adheres to TSO naming conventions.

pds-name(member)

Use this operand when adding a member of a partitioned data set as a module.

Enter the user-supplied name of the PDS and the name of the member to add.

The LIBADD command constructs the full data set name by prefixing the user-supplied name with your user-prefix and appending the specified type entry to the name. If a type is not specified, the system default type is used. The member name is used as the module name.

Note: You can only use this operand for partitioned data sets whose names adhere to TSO naming conventions. When you are adding a member of a PDS whose name deviates from TSO naming conventions (or when you want the module-name to be different from the member name), you must use the module-name operand to specify the name to apply to the module and identify the PDS and member through the TSODSN option.

The following examples show typical applications for the LIBADD command.
