5.9.3 Transfer Data Files and Checkpoint Information to the Target Unit

__  1. Ensure Backup

       Ensure that a current backup tape exists for the
       original and target_unit (if active); otherwise submit
       the unit's BACKUP job.  Ensure that the job completes
       with a condition code of zero and that all timespans
       have been successfully copied.

__  2. Suspend Production Processing (Original and Targeted
       Unit)

       Suspend production operations for the unit database by
       using the Operational Status and Tracking SUSPEND
       command in MWF to deactivate production scheduling.

       Suspend production processing in the original_unit and
       the target_unit if it is active.

__  3. Create Online Database Copy Job

       Create a job in the original_unit to copy all of the
       product's online database files to the target_unit.
       Use the JCL below as an example.  Add DD and PROC COPY
       statements to the job if any of the product's files
       reside in a split timespan.

       NOTE:  If the product interfaces with the CA MICS
              Accounting and Chargeback product, invoke the
              MICS Workstation Facility (MWF).  Use the
              following options: Management Support
              Applications, Accounting and Chargeback,
              Parameter Specification and Generation, Rate
              Tables (4;2;3;6) to copy the product journal
              files, where ff is the file identifier.

              For more information about the Accounting
              Journal Files (ACTJxx), refer to the Accounting
              and Chargeback User Guide, Appendix C.2.

       //         EXEC MICSSHRx,SYSPARM=
       //NDETAIL  DD  DISP=OLD,DSN=target_prefix.MICS.DETAIL
       //NDAYS    DD  DISP=OLD,DSN=target_prefix.MICS.DAYS
       //NWEEKS   DD  DISP=OLD,DSN=target_prefix.MICS.WEEKS
       //NMONTHS  DD  DISP=OLD,DSN=target_prefix.MICS.MONTHS
       //NYEARS   DD  DISP=OLD,DSN=target_prefix.MICS.YEARS
         PROC COPY IN=DETAIL OUT=NDETAIL;
           SELECT iii:  iii: ;
           SELECT ACTJff: ;              (if ACT interface)
         PROC COPY IN=DAYS OUT=NDAYS;
           SELECT iii:  iii: ;
         PROC COPY IN=WEEKS OUT=NWEEKS;
           SELECT iii:  iii: ;
         PROC COPY IN=MONTHS OUT=NMONTHS;
           SELECT iii:  iii: ;
         PROC COPY IN=YEARS OUT=NYEARS;  (if active)
           SELECT iii:  iii: ;

       where x is the identifier of the original_unit,
       target_prefix is the high-level qualifier of the
       target_unit, and iii is each information area within
       the product that you are moving.


__  4. (CONDITIONAL) Deactivate Accounting and Chargeback

       If this is the only product that interfaces with
       Accounting and Chargeback, then edit the DAY199 step
       of the DAILY job in the original_unit as follows:

       SYSPARM=NODATA

       NOTE:  Accounting and Chargeback should not be
              deactivated until the accounting months-end
              processing has occurred.

__  5. Execute Copy Job Created in a Previous Step

       Add the job card (and PROCLIB card, if required) to
       the JCL and submit the job.  Ensure that it completes
       with a condition code of zero.

__  6. (CONDITIONAL) Rename IMS Suspend Files

       If you are moving the IMS product and using the
       suspend file, rename the following input and output
       suspend files to the target_prefix:

          target_prefix.MICS.IMSSUS1
          target_prefix.MICS.IMSSUS2

       Use the ISPF option 3.2, option 3.4 or the TSO RENAME
       command.

__  7. (OPTIONAL) Print CHECKPOINT Data Set

       Print the prefix.MICS.CHECKPT.DATA data set in the
       original_unit in order, in the event recovery is
       needed.

__  8. (CONDITIONAL) Define Accounting Rates

       If Accounting and Chargeback is installed, use the
       CA MICS Workstation Facility (MWF) to complete the
       RATETBL panels.  Select option 4;2;3;6 from the MWF
       primary options panel.  The JCL for the MAGRUN will be
       displayed automatically if any of the RATETBL
       specifications are altered.


       NOTE:  If the logical SYSID is checked before
              assigning a comp code value, review the
              ACTFnnnn members in sharedprefix.MICS.SOURCE,
              where 'nnnn' is the number of an accounting
              comp code.  If the CPU processor or processor
              speed is used in determining your site's
              accounting logic, then logic for the new CPU or
              LPAR will need to be added.

__  9. Modify CHECKPOINT

       __ Use ISPF EDIT, COPY and PASTE commands to copy the
          checkpoint lines from the original_unit to
          target_prefix.MICS.CHECKPT.DATA.

          These lines should apply to the product as
          installed in the target_unit:  SYSIDs, subsystems,
          data sources, time-stamps, etc.

       __ Edit target_prefix.MICS.CHECKPT.DATA to fit your
          organization's needs.

       Ensure that your ISPF EDIT profile has the NUMBER OFF
       option in effect; this data set cannot have line
       numbers.

__ 10. Resume Operations (Targeted Unit)

       database.  Use the Operational Status and Tracking
       RESUME command in MWF to enable CA MICS operational
       jobs.

       Complete the "Remove A Component from a Unit"
       checklist in Section 5.12.
