Step 7: Load the Online Panels and JCL Library

All users must perform this step.

Upgrade Considerations

If you are upgrading, see the chapter "Upgrading from a Prior Release" for more information about this step.

Load the online panel and JCL library members to the database from the CAI.CVDEPENU data set.

The RMODBASE OLOAD control statement is used to load the panel, message, and skeleton JCL members in the online library to the database. The online library is defined with the DD statement RMOOLIB.

Note: The high-level name of the database must have been defined with the NAME control statement (or the PARM parameter of the EXEC JCL statement).

Syntax:

OLOAD

Member HBRNOLOD of CAI.CVDEJCL provides sample JCL for this job.

Customizing BROWSE and HELP Panels

The CAI.CVDEPENU data set contains the BROWSE and HELP panels; you can modify them with the following limitations:

Constants:

Constants can be modified and their length can be increased or decreased. The new text displays as coded.

Variables:

Most variables can be moved around the screen as long as the original variable names are retained
Be aware that the relative position of some variables is critical.
The length of a variable can be changed, but be aware that the product pads the value with blanks (or truncates it) to conform to its internal length.
Any variable can be deleted from a panel.
An attempt to add a new variable to a screen results in the variable name itself appearing on the screen, without interpretation.
