Execution of CCFCNV37

CCFCNV37 uses the following files:

MASTER

Defines the CCF System Master File to convert. If you omit this DD statement, CCFCNV37 tries to locate the correct System Master through the $CCFCOMI module in the CCF load library. If you provide a MASTER DD, the SYSBASE= operand in the parm must define the MCD base for the file.

CCFPRINT

Defines the report file. If omitted, CCFCNV37 tries to use the $CCFCOMI module to determine the printer definitions required.

CCFOUT

Defines the optional output file where CA Librarian control statements necessary to update the System Master File with the reformatted table and control members are written. If omitted, NOCCFOUT must be specified in the PARM.

STEPLIB

Can define the library containing the $CCFCOMI module if MASTER or CCFPRINT DD statements are omitted.

The following PARM operands are valid for CCFCNV37:

ROSCOE

Converts the CA Roscoe CCF tables (see below for information on converting in the CA Roscoe environment).

TSO

Converts the TSO/ISPF CCF tables.

CMS

Converts the CMS/ISPF CCF tables.

NOTABLE5

Suppresses conversion of $CxxT005 members.

NOCCFOUT

Suppresses use of CCFOUT to hold the CA Librarian update control stream.

SYSBASE=nnnn

Provides CA Librarian MCD base for the CCF System Master defined in the MASTER DD statement.

UPDATE

CCFCNV37 directly updates the CCF System Master during the execution of the conversion. If any table errors are detected during conversion, the update is suppressed.

The UPDATE parameter and the CCFOUT file are not mutually exclusive; you can write the control stream to the output file even though you request direct updating of the System Master File.

Note: If your site shares a CCF System Master File between CCF systems running under different environments (for example ISPF(TSO) and ISPF(VM/ESA or z/VM)), then one conversion must be done for all the environments. Failure to do this results in incomplete LCDF tables.
