Create Generic Initialization File and RUNSYSIN Member for Multiple Regions

Create a generic RUNSYSIN member that points to a generic initialization file so you can use the member for all the regions deployed in your enterprise.

To create generic initialization file and RUNSYSIN member

1. Generate the initialization file for a properly configured region.
2. Replace specific information in the file by product variables and system symbols.

   A generic initialization file is created.

3. Replace specific information in RUNSYSIN by system symbols.
4. Update RUNSYSIN with the following statement:

   PPREF='INIFILE=xxxxINI'
   

   xxxxINI

   Is the name of the generic initialization file.

   A generic RUNSYSIN member is created.

5. Start the region using the generic RUNSYSIN member to verify that it is free of errors.

   If initialization errors occur, review RUNSYSIN and the initialization file to correct the errors.

6. Repeat the previous step until the region initializes without error.

   The generic RUNSYSIN member is ready for use by other regions.
