Convert the Profile Data Set (INST0051)

If CA SYSVIEW is already installed, complete this step to convert your existing profile data set to the new format.

If you are installing CA SYSVIEW for the first time, skip this step.

Note: When someone is using the new release of CA SYSVIEW during the profile conversion process, the profile of that user is not converted.

Follow these steps:

  1. Modify the JCL in the INST0051 member, which is in the sysview.SAMPJCL data set.
  2. Edit the SYSUT1 DD statement by providing the existing profile data set used with the previous release in the SET OLD= parameter.

    The SET NEW= parameter is filled in for you with new profile data set to be used with this new release. You can modify this value.

    Example: Data set variable names

    SET OLD='old.profile.dataset'
    SET NEW='new.profile.dataset'
    
    OLD

    Specifies the data set name of the existing profile to convert.

    NEW

    Specifies the data set name of the new profile data set that was distributed with the new release.

  3. Submit the INST0051 member.

    The job converts the existing profile data set to the current release using the following two steps:

    1. Initializes the new or output profile data set with members from the distribution profile.
    2. Converts the profile data set from a prior release into the new profile data set.

The profile data set is converted.
