Specify the Files CA-L-Serv Manages

You must specify to CA-L-Serv the VSAM files it is managing.

Use the ddname prefix, as described in Specify the DDname Prefix, to identify which files will be accessed by each CA TPX instance.

For example, use the following ddnames for the VSAM files if you are using the ddname prefix TPXV:

TPXVADM1
TPXVADM2
TPXVNOTE
TPXVMAIL
TPXVVIEW

When using CA-L-Serv to manage file sharing, you must ensure that CA-L-Serv is the only address space with update access to the files. To ensure adequate protection, you must carry out the tasks described in the following paragraphs.
