10.1.14 Convert to a Different Data Source


The CA MICS Analyzer Option for CICS supports two data source
definitions:  CMF (this includes CICS statistics processing
for CICS 3.1.1 and CMF look-alike records produced by
OMEGAMON for CICS) and ASG-TMON for CICS TS (TCE).

When you switch from one input data source to another, you
must change the appropriate options in CA MICS. The following
checklist shows what steps must be taken to accomplish this.

   *    CHECKLIST 14  - CONVERT TO A DIFFERENT DATA   *
   *    SOURCE                                        *
   *                                                  *

___ 1.  Make a backup copy of all complex and unit level
        libraries in the complex.

___ 2.  Edit sharedprefix.MICS.GENLIB(CICGENIN) and specify
        the correct parameters for the OPTION statement.
        Turn off the parameters that are unrelated to your
        data source.  For example, for CMF processing,
        specify the following:

        OPTION CMF NOMON NORESP NOOMEGU

        See section 7.2.1 of this guide for a complete
        description of the OPTION statement.

___ 3.  Update the FILE statement in the CICGENIN member of
        sharedprefix.MICS.GENLIB to turn on/off files that
        are related to your data source.  Currently, only two
        CICS files are unique to a specific data source.
        They are the CICCSF (CICS File/DBD Activity) and
        CICCMR (CICS MRO Activity) files, both of which are
        created from ASG-TMON for CICS TS (TCE) only and are
        turned off as shipped.  You may activate them as
        needed using the instructions provided in sections
        10.1.9 (CICCSF) and 10.1.13 (CICCMR) of this guide.

___ 4.  Submit sharedprefix.MICS.CNTL(CICCGEN).

___ 5.  Copy the appropriate decompression modules for the
        new input data source to sharedprefix.MICS.LOAD.


   ****************************************************
   *     Repeat the following steps for each database *
   *     unit containing the CA MICS Analyzer Option  *
   *     for CICS.                                    *
   ****************************************************

___ 6.  Edit prefix.MICS.PARMS(CICOPS) and update the CICOPTS
        statements to reflect the new data source.  See
        section 7.3.2 for a complete description of the
        CICOPTS statement.

___ 7.  Edit prefix.MICS.PARMS(INPUTCIC) to specify the JCL
        for the data source.  If the input file is SMF, leave
        only comments in this member.  Do not delete the
        member.  See section 7.3.4 for a complete description
        of prefix.MICS.PARMS(INPUTCIC).

___ 8.  If the input is SMF, edit prefix.MICS.PARMS(JCLDEF)
        to specify SMFRECORDING for CICS.

___ 9.  Edit prefix.MICS.PARMS(INPUTSMF) to specify the JCL
        if the input file is SMF.  You must use the ddname
        INPUTSMF when coding the JCL for this member.  See
        section 7.3.3 for a complete description of
        prefix.MICS.PARMS(INPUTSMF).

___ 10. Submit prefix.MICS.CNTL(CICPGEN).

___ 11. Edit prefix.MICS.PARMS(JCLGENU) so that it reads:

        DAILY

___ 12. Submit prefix.MICS.CNTL(JCLGENU) to regenerate the
        DAILY JCL.

___ 13. Review the definitions in prefix.MICS.PARMS(DBMODEL).
        Modify the cycle retention number to match the file
        status in each timespan.

___ 14. Submit prefix.MICS.CNTL(CYCLEGEN) if DBMODEL was
        modified in Step 13.
