When you create a new procedure of type *END, *START, *SWTPLAN, *SWTUNPLAN, or *SWTVRT, it is a copy of the shipped default procedure and includes its steps.
Do the following from a management system:
-
On the Work with Procedures display, type
1
(Create) next to the blank line at the top of the list and press Enter. -
The Create Procedure (CRTPROC) display appears. Specify a name for the Procedure prompt. The name must be unique for the application group you will specify in Step 4, and must not be used by a procedure of type *NODE in the installation.
-
At the Type prompt, specify the applicable type (*END, *START, *SWTPLAN, *SWTUNPLAN, or *SWTVRT) and press Enter.
-
At the Application group definition prompt, specify the name of the application group with which the procedure will be associated.
-
To make the procedure be the default of its type for the specified application group, specify *YES for the Default for type prompt.
-
At the Description prompt, specify text that describes the procedure and press Enter.
-
Optional step: Customize the procedure by adding or removing steps and adjusting step attributes as needed using the topics within Working with the steps of a procedure and Working with step programs.
