Creating a repository catalog


One repository catalog is created automatically at the time you install any Fast Path Offline Suite product. However, you can allocate and initialize any number of additional repository catalogs. You might prefer, for example, to use one repository catalog for your test environment and a different repository catalog for your production environment.

Creating an additional repository catalog

  1. Execute the IBM IDCAMS utility to create a VSAM KSDS.
  2. Initialize the new VSAM KSDS by executing the PFPEP R00 program. The JCL to create a repository catalog is built during product installation. Sample JCL can also be found in the Fast Path/EP sample library in member name #INITEPR. For more information, see Create-and-initialize-a-repository-catalog.
