Allocating BBI-SS PAS journal and image logs

Use the following procedure to allocate the journal and image log data sets that are used during execution of a BBI-SS PAS.

Tip

This task is optional for the following products and does not apply to other products:

  • BMC AMI Ops Automation
  • BMC AMI Ops Monitor for CICS
  • BMC AMI Ops Monitor for Db2
  • BMC AMI Ops Monitor for DBCTL
  • BMC AMI Ops Monitor for IMS Offline
  • BMC AMI Ops Monitor for IMS Online
  • BMC AMI Ops Monitor for MQ

Manual-customization

 Member SSLOG contains sample JCL to allocate BBI-SS PAS journal and image log data sets. For BMC AMI Ops Automation, it also contains a sample statement to allocate a profile variable pool called BBIVARS for BMC AMI Ops Automation EXECs.

Important

  • Do not alter the log attributes. The default attributes are required and are reset automatically if you change them.
  • If you are using products on multiple systems and want to use the same JCL procedure for all of them, include the SSID in the data set name of the logs. All of the subsystems can then use the same procedure.
  • BMC recommends the use of image logs for BMC AMI Ops Monitor for CICS, BMC AMI Ops Monitor for IMS Online, BMC AMI Ops Monitor for Db2, and BMC AMI Ops Monitor for DBCTL.
  • BBI-SS PAS image logs are not used by BMC AMI Ops Automation or BMC AMI Ops Monitor for MQ.

To allocate the BBI-SS PAS journal and image log data sets

  1. In BBSAMP member SSLOG, make the following global changes (including the S1, S2, and S3 statements at the end of this job):
    1. Change the PREFIX parameter to the prefix that was used to load the product libraries to DASD.
    2. Set the SS parameter to the subsystem ID of the BBI-SS PAS.
    3. Set the DV parameter to the volume serial of the allocation volume for the BBI-SS PAS journal data sets.
    4. Set the DU parameter to the allocation volume unit type.
  2. If you do not have BMC AMI Ops Monitor for CICS, BMC AMI Ops Monitor for IMS Online, BMC AMI Ops Monitor for DBCTL, or BMC AMI Ops Monitor for Db2, comment out the ALLOCIMG (S1) procedure.

  3. If you do not have BMC AMI Ops Automation, comment out the ALLOCBVP (S3) procedure.

    Important

    If you have BMC AMI Ops Automation, the ALLOCBVP statement is required to allocate the BBIVARS profile variable pool for BMC AMI Ops Automation EXECs.
