Using options to control your environment

For your production requirements, you should reevaluate the option settings for 

DASD MANAGER PLUS

. For most situations, the installation default values are sufficient. However, you might want to customize the operating environment and panels.

DASD MANAGER PLUS uses default, user, and product options to define the operating environment and to specify how the product’s components work. The options also contain default values for data set names and allocations, job control language (JCL) generation information, and component plan names.

These options provide you with the ability to:

  • Tailor the interface
  • Set up defaults for generating job statements
  • Specify defaults for parameters, names, and prefixes for allocated data sets

DASD MANAGER PLUS generates JCL, SQL, IBM Db2 commands, and utilities to manage Db2 objects. You can specify the default data set names that DASD MANAGER PLUS generates into job streams and you can specify other default values to appear on various utility option panels. Your ISPF profile stores these values, so you do not have to enter them each time you run DASD MANAGER PLUS.

Typically, the person who installs DASD MANAGER PLUS sets default values for user options. For information about establishing installation option values at installation, see:
