4.3.3.3.7 INCRccc Job Steps

The actions being performed within each of the steps in the
INCRccc jobs are discussed below.

Step INCRnnn:  Update information areas in the incremental
               update database for the ccc product.  There is
               one step corresponding to the product's DAYnnn
               (001-190) step.

  1.  Verify that prerequisite steps completed successfully.
      a.  Previous DAY900 step
      b.  Previous INCRnnn step (if any)
  2.  If the INCRSPLIT USE option is set for this product,
      dynamically allocate the input SMF data file
      (prefix.MICS.ccc.IUSPLTDS) created by the SPLITSMF job.
  3.  If this is the first INCRnnn execution since the last
      DAILY job completed,
      a.  Initialize the incremental update checkpoint file
          from the unit checkpoint.
      b.  Initialize incremental update database suspend
          files for the ccc product (if any) from the CA MICS
          database DETAIL and/or DAYS timespans.
  4.  Read raw input data, convert to SAS format, and
      output to intermediate work files.
  5.  Sort, analyze, summarize, and enhance intermediate work
      file contents to create incremental update DETAIL cycle
      00 files.
  6.  Build incremental update DAYS cycle 00 files.
  7.  Combine the new 00 cycle files with 01 cycle files (if
      any) from the prior INCRnnn execution to create the
      updated incremental update DETAIL and DAYS cycle I0
      files.
  8.  Update time ranges in the SYSID/COMPONENT section of
      the incremental update checkpoint file and input
      history log.
  9.  Perform incremental update file aging.
      a.  Rename incremental update DETAIL cycle I0 to 01.
      b.  Rename incremental update DAYS cycle I0 to 01.
 10.  Update the incremental update checkpoint file--
      INCRnnn completed.
 11.  If the INCRSPLIT USE option is set for this product,
      delete the prefix.MICS.ccc.IUSPLTDS data set that was
      used as input by this INCRccc execution.
