Defining PARMLIB members

As with initialization and refresh, the ADMEM views scan for members within the SVOSPARM DD concatenation and display the first member found that falls within the criteria selected for a particular view.

Using the same example described in initialization, if two SMMSYS00 members exist, one in the first and second library of the concatenation, only the SMMSYS00 member from the first library is displayed in the view. The SMMSYS00 member from the second library is ignored and not displayed. The data set name that contains the member and its position within the concatenation are displayed in the ADMEM views. In the views, the data set concatenation position that is displayed is relative to 1.

Tip

In a shared PARMLIB environment, you can implement and maintain BMC AMI Storage systems by coding statements in a shared z/OS PDS. For more information, see Defining-the-sysplex-environment.

To define PARMLIB members

  1. On the EZSRM Menu, select Parmlib members.A list of members is displayed.
  2. Select a member from the selection list.
  3. Type E in the CMD column next to an active member and press Enter.
  4. Edit the member to your specifications.
  5. Press PF3 to save and exit the member.If you are using concatenated data sets within your PARMLIB DD, the member that you updated is saved into the first data set within the concatenation. Therefore, if you have a user and distribution library concatenated (in that order) within your PARMLIB DD and you edit a member from the distribution library, the edited member is saved into the user library. The member in the distribution library is not updated.
  6. Type R in the CMD column next to the member that you edited and press Enter.The member is refreshed, which makes it the active member. It will remain active until SVOS is stopped or you refresh another member.
