Enabling interaction between Catalog Manager and BMC utilities (including Backup and Recovery products)

Catalog Managercan interact with the BMCUTIL, BMCHIST, and BMCSYNC tables to provide BMC utility control, status, and history information.

Important

Catalog Manageraccesses the utility tables during batch processing and when using online commands.

Before you begin

Determine whether you need to perform this task and, if so, which parts of this task you need to perform:

Perform this task if you installed Catalog Managerin a separate installation session before you installed the utilities.
Determine whether your current aliases point to the correct tables.
Catalog Manageruses the following aliases:
- BMC_UTILITY for the BMCUTIL table
- REORG_HISTORY for the BMCHIST table
- BMC_UTIL_SYNC and BMC_UTIL_SYNC2 for the BMCSYNC table
If the utilities are installed in a different load library than Catalog Manager, use the task To use the load library in which the utilities are installed.

In the HLQ.UBMCCNTL library, find the member that has the same name as the Catalog Managerinstallation options module.
In the POFDS parameter of the member, note the name of the POF.
In the HLQ.UBMCCNTL library, find the POF member.
Update the following keywords with ,(R) and update the POFDATE in the POF member to use the different utilities load libraries:
- ADDLOAD1
- ADDLOAD2
- BMC_CHECK_LOAD
- BMC_COPY_LOAD
- BMC_LOAD_LOAD
- BMC_RECOVER_LOAD
- BMC_REORG_LOAD
- BMC_UNLOAD_LOAD
If necessary, add any additional load libraries to SLIB member AJXSTEPU.
If you added load libraries in Step 5, compile the SLIB member.
For sample compile JCL, refer to member AJXCOMPS in the HLQ.BMCCNTL data set.
Important

If you want to modify the JCL in member AJXCOMPS, copy the member from HLQ.BMCCNTL to HLQ.UBMCCNTL. Then, modify the JCL in HLQ.BMCCNTL(AJXCOMPS).
