Step 2 - Allocate and Initialize the SCDS

After the build completes, you are ready to allocate and initialize the SCDS.

To allocate and initialize the SCDS

1. Click Hide at the bottom of the Build Configuration Task display.
2. Proceed to the Configurations display.

   The configuration you just built is available with a status of Build Complete.

3. Click Action at the far right of the line with the SCDS allocation configuration.
4. Select Implement from the menu.

   The Configuration Implementation Wizard appears, showing one step that will allocate and initialize the SCDS.

5. Click Release Next or Release All at the top to start the allocation.

   The SCDS allocation is run by CA MSM. If successful, the SCDS is allocated and initialized and ready for further configurations that will add systems, logstreams, and substreams.

   The output from CA SMF Director is available on the system where CA MSM is running as an output generated from an auxiliary address space.

   Note: For more information about locating JES2 output from CA MSM processes, see the CA MSM documentation.
