31704_Roles_50x50_icon_5.png

The Strobeinstaller is required for this task.

1.Edit and execute member ALLOCTST found in the hlq.SSTRSAMP dataset.

Member ALLOCTST contains a job that creates the queue, log, system, group, and history datasets. This job also creates startup procedures STRTSM, STRTSSR, STRTSSA, STRTMSAS and STRTMNAS.

2.Follow the instructions in the JCL to ensure that a proper high-level qualifier is specified for the Strobedatasets.

3.Review the SYSUT1 dataset names to verify that the correct system PROCLIB is specified.

4.If your site is licensed for the Strobefor Db2/DDF option, replace DB2.SDSNLOAD with the name of your site's most current Db2 version SDSNLOAD library.

Although Compuware does not recommend it, if your site standards require modifications to the Strobestarted task names, the following changes must be made:

  1. Update the procedures (created by the ALLOCTST job) in the system procedure library to the new names.
  2. Ensure the Security steps in Task-4-3-External-Security-Considerations reflect the new names.
  3. Update the Strobeparameters MSASPROCNAME, SSAPROCNAME, and MNASPROCNAME in Strobe parameter member STRT00 to reflect the correct procedure names.
