Introduction Generating DELTA Lists

You can create a DELTA List using IMS Stage-1 system definition macros as input, online or in batch. You can also convert a DELTA List to Stage-1 macros and create updates for the Stage-1 system definition from the DELTA Logs.

For more information about using the DELTA Logs to create updates for Stage-1 system definition, refer to Selecting Report Format and Sort Sequence.

Because APPC changes are made to data sets instead of an IMS control region, the DELTA List creation and conversion facilities cannot be used to create or convert DELTA Lists or DELTA List elements that implement APPC changes.
