Usage

High-speed Apply Engine uses NEWFUNC to determine whether to use BMCSORT or AMISORT. Select one of the following values:

  • COMPAT – (Default) High-speed Apply Engine uses BMCSORT.
  • ENABLE – High-speed Apply Engine uses AMISORT.

You can override the installation option value NEWFUNC=ENABLE at the JOBSTEP level by using NONEWFNC DD, which is NONEWFNC DD DUMMY.

Before enabling AMISORT, you might need to configure a specific DFSMS STORCLASS for dynamic allocation of SORTWORKs. If there is no DFSMS STORCLASS dictated by your installation for allocation of SORTWORKs, you might omit this step, otherwise refer to the specific storclass parameter at the product level. For more information on how to set the sort work data sets, see Considerations.
