Manual post-processing tasks

The following steps apply when you complete post-processing tasks manually:

Note

You must perform the steps exactly as listed in this section.

To complete manual post-processing tasks

Issue a /DBR for each database involved to obtain exclusive control of the database.
Create IDCAMS ALTER statements to swap the database data set names. The following is an example of IDCAMS ALTER statements:
ALTER dbd.dsn NEWNAME (your.own.temp)
VSAM has cluster and component names; these must be renamed together.
If DBRC is used, notify DBRC that the reorganization has taken place. Issue the following commands:
NOTIFY.REORG DBD(YOURDBD) DDN(EACHDDN) CURRENT
If you are using the Reorg function with the BMC AMI Database Integrity for IMS (DI+) product, you must use the LBLGEN process to rebuild the label for the reorganized database manually. For more information, see the BMC AMI Database Integrity for IMS documentation.
When you have successfully swapped the database data set names, take an image copy of the databases.
If DBRC is used, issue the following DBRC command to authorize the database:
CHANGE.DB DBD(YOURDBD) AUTH
If necessary, issue /STA for the database.
