Installing the Acquire JCL - syncsort_capacity_management - 12.60

Carry out the following steps to install the JCL library for Acquire.

• Allocate a sequential file on your mainframe. Allocate it as follows:

  • Data Set Name     (HLQ).AVMvvvv.JCLLIB.XMI

  • Space Units           CYL

  • Primary Quantity   1

  • Secondary Quantity 1

  • Directory Blocks      0

  • Record Format         FB

  • Record Length         80

  • Block Size          8000 (or any other convenient block size).

• Using FTP or similar, upload file ZVM.JCLLIB.XMI into the file you have just created. You must transmit the file as BINARY data.

• From TSO option 6, issue the command RECEIVE INDS(<filename>) using the name of the file you have just created and uploaded the JCL library into. You will be presented with messages similar to these:

  INMR901I Dataset METRON.AVMvvvv.JCLLIB from METRON on S0W1

  INMR906A Enter restore parameters or 'DELETE' or 'END' +

• You may accept the name to be used by pressing Enter, or change it by entering :

  DA(<your dataset name>)

• The sample JCL library will then be restored, ready for use. If you can browse the members in this new library then (HLQ).AVMvvvv.JCLLIB.XMI is no longer needed and can be deleted.
