Optionally editing the Subzero initialization script (BRDOPTS)

To edit the initialization script

1. Access the BRDOPTS member from the DBCENV dataset referenced in the DBC$STC PROC.
2. Edit the values for the keywords as desired:
   • BRDPROC=procName specifies the procedure that DBC uses to start Subzero agents. For procName, you can specify any valid procedure name instead of the default BRDPROC. Ensure that you also use this name as the name of the corresponding member in a data set in your SYSPROC concatenation.

   • JOBNAME=jobName specifies the job name of the Subzero controlling agent. For jobName, you can specify any valid job name (up to eight characters) instead of the default BRDCNTL. By default, the job names of Subzero subsystem servers are based on the JOBNAME value unless you define a naming pattern for the subsystem servers:

     • DBC retains up to the first four characters of the controlling agent's JOBNAME.
     • Subzero appends the four character subsystem ID of the associated DB2 or IMS subsystem.
     • The name is padded with blanks to ensure an eight character JOBNAME.

     In the job name, you can specify any symbolic value that DBC supports.

     Example

     JOBNAME=&SSID.CNTL

     During execution, the system constructs the name by substituting current values for the symbolic values. In this example, the system substitutes the DBC subsystem ID.

     Note

     Ensure that the constructed length of the job name does not exceed 8 characters.

     For information about supported symbolic values, see the The referenced document [internal:Guidelines.Resources.zsoiddcentral.Other-information.Writing-group-pages.DB2-writers.Shared-content-general._links_DB2-XXXX-DON-T-USE.WebHome] was not found..

Where to go from here

After making changes to BRDOPTS member, the new values will be used the next time that BRD is restarted in the DBC.  To restart BRD, you can issue the console command /dbcssid BRD,REFRESH where dbcssid is the DBC SSID. For more information, see Working-with-agents and Changing-references-to-the-product-load-library in the CZM2.
