3.5.6.1 Database Macro Generation


This step assumes that you have already finalized your data
retention parameters in prefix.MICS.PARMS(DBMODEL).  If you
have not finalized these parameters and run the DBSIZE job to
determine the implications of your specifications, see
Section 2.3.4.2, "Executing the Database Space Modeling
Facility."

SUB 'prefix.MICS.CNTL(DBSIZE)'

Once the output of DBSIZE has been reviewed and verified, you
may generate the SAS MACROs required to define the database
by executing the CYCLEGEN job.

SUB 'prefix.MICS.CNTL(CYCLEGEN)'

Note:  CYCLEGEN should only be run when it is mandatory to
change a database retention definition.  First make sure that
the DBMODEL member contains the correct definitions.
