Naming conventions
The MainView Batch Optimizer BatchPlex control data set contains several types of definition members.
The MainView Batch Optimizer dialog identifies these members by using their member name prefix, the first keyword in the member, or the user ID. The appropriate member name prefix, keyword value, and user ID depend on the member type. For example, a new data policy should have a name that starts with DATPOL (for example, DATPOL02), keyword DATAPOLICY, and user ID DATAPOL, if needed.
The following table shows the allowable member name prefix, first keyword, and user ID for each member type. In the table, xx can be any two characters that are alphabetic, numeric, or the characters $, @, or #.
Name | Keyword | User ID | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
BPLEXxx | BATCHPLEX | BPLEX | BatchPlex definition member that identifies the MVS images to which Job Optimizer can direct job steps for processing, and on which Data Optimizer can provide I/O performance processing |
DATPOLxx | DATAPOLICY | DATPOL | Data policy definition that associates one or more data set characteristics with a Data Optimizer response or type of I/O performance processing |
JOBPOLxx | JOBPOLICY | JOBPOL | Job policy definition that associates one or more batch job characteristics with a Job Optimizer response or type of job performance processing |
UCFPOLxx | UCFPOLICY | UCFPOL | UCF policy definition that defines BatchPlex environmental 'special handling' conditions for Job Optimizer processing |
BCSCMDxx | None | User ID of the user that last edited the member | BMC Software Consolidated Subsystem (BCSS) commands data set member that defines start-up characteristics for the subsystem |
PIPPRMxx | PIPEPARMS | PIPPRM | Pipe initialization parameters member that contains the Job Optimizer Pipes Subsystem startup parameters |
PIPLSTxx | PIPELIST | PIPLST | Pipe Policy List member that contains a list of Pipe Policy Table member and data set names Job Optimizer Pipes loads the rule definitions that are contained in each of these members during subsystem startup. |
