5.18.1 - Enable Checkpoint Cleanup at Complex Level


   +---------------------------------------------------------+
   | Reference(s): Section 2.3.1.8 (CPLXDEF)                 |

 __  1. To implement or modify the Checkpoint Cleanup Option
        at the complex level, edit 
 
        sharedprefix.MICS.PARMS(CPLXDEF) to insert
        or modify statement:
 
         CKPTLIMIT nnn
 
        where nnn is a value from 1 - 999.
 
 *************************************************************
 ***                    W A R N I N G                      ***
 *** Setting too low a value for the CKPTLIMIT option can  ***
 *** lead to duplicate data if previously processed data   ***
 *** is erroneously presented to the CA MICS update jobs.  ***
 *** Set the value high enough to prevent duplicate        ***
 *** data, and low enough so that a benefit is gained      ***
 *** that can offset the overhead of the DAILY "age"       ***
 *** checking.  For example, a value of 120 would remove   ***
 *** any entries OLDER than the current run date of the    ***
 *** CA MICS DAILY job minus 120 days.                     ***
 ***                    W A R N I N G                      ***

 __  2. Submit the following job:
 
        'sharedprefix.MICS.CNTL(CPLXGEN)'
 
        Ensure that there are no error messages in MICSLOG or
        SYSTSPRT, that the MICSLOG contains the normal
        termination message, BAS02999I, and that the job
        completes with a condition code of zero.
 
        Review the MICSLOG to confirm the status of the
        Checkpoint Cleanup Option and/or its setting.
 
   ***********************************************************
   *  Repeat step 3 for each database unit in the CA MICS    *
   *  complex.                                               *

 __  3. Submit the following job:
 
        'prefix.MICS.CNTL(BASPGEN)'
 
        Ensure that there are no error messages in the MICSLOG
        or SYSTSPRT.  Review the MICSLOG for BAS00196I message
        pertaining to the CHECKPOINT Option status.  Ensure
        the MICSLOG contains the BAS00433I message as well as
        the normal termination message, BAS60199I, and that
        the job completes with a condition code of zero.
 
   ***********************************************************
   *  Repeat step 3 for each database unit in the CA MICS    *
   *  complex.                                               *
   ***********************************************************
 
        You MUST execute the BASPGEN for every unit for the
        option to take effect.
