Loading a TSS Table into a TSS Data Set


If you have unloaded a TSS table from a TSS data set and want to put the TSS table back in the original TSS data set or copy the TSS table into a different TSS data set, you must perform a TSS table load. The Load a Table pop-up window allows you to do this.

Before you begin

You must at least have authority to perform the TSS load function. If you want to specify a new table name when you reload a TSS table into a TSS data set, you must have authority to use the TSS load function and authority to use the TSS define table function. Contact your system administrator.

You must have previously unloaded a TSS table from a TSS data set. See Unloading-a-TSS-Table-from-a-TSS-Data-Set for instructions.

Note

If you want to reload a TSS table into the data set from which it was unloaded without changing the table name, you must first delete the original table from the data set. You may also want to reorganize the TSS data set to reclaim DASD used by the deleted table. See Deleting-a-TSS-Table-from-a-TSS-Data-Set or Reorganizing-a-TSS-Data-Set-While-Not-in-Use for instructions.

To Load a TSS Table into a TSS Data Set

  1. Go to the ETA Translate Sub-System panel. From the ETA Main Menu, type 1 in the Selection field and press Enter. The ETA Translate Sub-System panel is displayed.
  2. Specify information about the TSS data set into which you want to load a table, then go to the Load a Table pop-up window. For this task, ignore data in the Table name field.
    1. Type 6 in the Selection field.
    2. In the TSS table data set field, type the name of the TSS data set into which the table (or tables) will be loaded.
    3. Verify or change the TSS data set disposition and press Enter. The Load a Tablepop-up window is displayed.
  3. Specify the tables to load and information about the input data set that currently contains the TSS tables.
    1. Type a table name or masking pattern in the Table name or mask field. If you type a wildcard character as the last character in a table masking pattern, the wildcard pads to the end of the field.
    2. If you want to load a single TSS table and you want to change the name of the table, type the new table name in the New table field.
    3. Type the name of the sequential input data set in the Data set field.
    4. Type the VOLSER value of the sequential input data set in the Volume serial field and press Enter. ETA loads the table(s) and displays the ETA Translate Sub-System panel and any applicable messages.
  4. To load other TSS tables, repeat Step 2 and Step 3 as required.
  5. Press F3 to return to the ETA Main Menu.

Where to go from here

To implement changes that you have made to the TSS table on an IMS system that uses cache buffering for access to TSS data sets, refresh TSS data in the IMS control region. See Refreshing-TSS-Table-Data-in-an-IMS-Control-Region for instructions.
