Invoking the BMCDB2 CLIST

To invoke the BMCDB2 CLIST

1. Invoke the BMCDB2 CLIST by using one of the following commands:

   • Invoke BMCDB2 explicitly from your CLIST data set in the ISPF command shell or your ISPF dialog with the following command:

   ex 'HLQ.UBMCCLIB(BMCDB2)'

   • If the BMCDB2 CLIST is copied to a library in your SYSPROC concatenation, invoke BMCDB2 implicitly with the following command:

   %BMCDB2

   To specify various parameters with the BMCDB2 command, see BMCDB2-command.

2. If the BMCDB2 CLIST supports multiple SSIDs:
   1. On the BMC Administrative Products for DB2 (BMCDB2PR) panel, type ? for the DB2 SSID
   2. On the BMCDB2 Subsystem Selection List (BMCDB2P2) panel, type S to select an SSID from the list of available SSIDs.The SSID that you selected is displayed in the DB2 SSID field on the BMC Administrative Products for DB2 (BMCDB2PR) panel.
   3. Press Enter.

3. If one of the following conditions exist, on the BMC Administrative Products for Db2 (BMCDB2PR) panel, type GENERATE on the COMMAND line:

   • You edited your BMCDB2 CLIST to use a generated permanent ISPF table for the control table by setting the GENTABLE variable to Y
   • You modified the control table that was previously generated
   • You want to specify the OPENTBL parameter in the BMCDB2 command

   Issuing the GENERATE command places a control table in a permanent ISPF table in the HLQ.UBMCTLIB data set, which improves the performance of the invocation of the products from a large control table referenced by the BMCDB2 CLIST. Refer to the BMCDB2T variable in the BMCDB2 CLIST for the location of the generated ISPF table.

4. Verify that all of the products appear on the BMCDB2PR panel that is displayed.
