APPLICATION RESTART CONTROL 4.1 Planning

Required BMC Software products

The AR/CTL products you need depend on the application program type:

  • A program that uses IMS or IMS compatible structures and calls requires AR/CTL for IMS. If you want to use the application reattach options with a batch DLI program, the AR/CTL BCF component is required.

  • A program that uses native VSAM requires AR/CTL for VSAM for easiest implementation and unrestricted support for VSAM data sets.

  • A program that needs to share a VSAM file with a CICS region requires AR/CTL for VSAM.

  • A program that uses local VSAM access services, including VSAM logging and dynamic backout, requires AR/CTL for VSAM.

  • A program that uses DB2 but does not use IMS requires AR/CTL for DB2.

  • A program that uses DB2 with IMS requires AR/CTL for IMS. AR/CTL for DB2 is optional; however, the AR/CTL functions that are specific to DB2 are available only with AR/CTL for DB2.

  • A program that uses QSAM files can use AR/CTL for DB2, AR/CTL for VSAM, or AR/CTL for IMS. If the program uses AR/CTL for IMS, it must execute program DFSRRC00.

Note

Any application program that starts with DFS or DSN are automatically excluded for ARC/CTL. This exclusion includes IMS and possibly DB2 IVPs.

This version of the documentation is no longer supported. However, the documentation is available for your convenience. You will not be able to leave comments.
