FDRSARLR Examples

All examples in this section are found in the JCL library installed with FDR. The member names are EX1523x.

Load SAR to DASD volume from FDRSAMP library example

Execute FDRSARLR to place SAR onto a DASD volume, copying it from the FDR Installation FDRSAMP (change the data set name to match what you used during FDR installation). This is the recommended way to load SAR to a DASD volume as most FDR installs are performed electronically.

//SAR2DISK EXEC PGM=FDRSARLR,REGION=0M
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=*
//OBJIN DD DISP=SHR,DSN=hlq.FDRSAMP(SAROBJ)
//OUTPUT DD UNIT=SYSALLDA,VOL=SER=volser,DISP=SHR

Load SAR to DASD volume and changing options example

Execute FDRSARLR to place SAR onto a DASD volume, copying it from the FDR Installation FDRSAMP, specify several alternate console addresses, and place SAR onto the label track of a DASD volume. If you want to copy SAR to a DASD without changing any options, omit SYSIN and the control statements.

//SAR2DISK EXEC PGM=FDRSARLR,REGION=0M
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=*
//OBJIN    DD UNIT=TAPE,VOL=SER=FDR54P,
//            DSN=SAR,DISP=OLD
//OUTPUT   DD UNIT=SYSALLDA,VOL=SER=volser,DISP=SHR
//SYSIN    DD *
CONSOLE DEVICE=3270
CONSOLE UNIT=005
CONSOLE UNIT=006
CONSOLE UNIT=007

Load SAR to tape from FDRSAMP library example

Execute FDRSARLR to place SAR onto an unlabeled tape volume, copying it from the FDR Installation FDRSAMP (change the data set name to match what you used during FDR installation).

//SAR2TAPE EXEC PGM=FDRSARLR,REGION=0M
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=*
//OBJIN    DD DISP=SHR,DSN=IDP.hlq.FDRSAMP(SAROBJ)
//OUTPUT   DD UNIT=TAPE,LABEL=(,NL),VOL=SER=IPLSAR,
//            DSN=IPLSAR,DISP=(,KEEP)

Modifying SAR on DASD example

Execute FDRSARLR to modify a copy of SAR previously written to DASD and write it back to the same DASD. The example shows VER and REP statements used to apply an BMC-provided fix to SAR, but this can also be used to change console addresses or message option defaults stored in that copy of SAR.

//SAZAP    EXEC PGM=FDRSARLR,REGION=0M
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=*
//OBJIN    DD UNIT=SYSALLDA,VOL=SER=volser,DISP=SHR
//OUTPUT   DD UNIT=SYSALLDA,VOL=SER=volser,DISP=SHR
//SYSIN    DD *
VER aaaa dddd   VERIFY 'dddd' at address 'aaaa'
REP aaaa eeee   REPLACE 'eeee' at address 'aaaa'
DUMP              Print SAR object module
/*

Print SAR boot records

Execute FDRSARLR to print the IPL records as well as the FDRSAR program that is loaded on the DASD volume. PARM option PROBJIN (Print Object Input) is used to print the SAR object code from the volume specified in OBJIN DD statement. This can be used as a debugging tool to determine if the latest version of FDRSAR is being loaded.

//FDRSARLR EXEC PGM=FDRSARLR,PARM='PROBJIN'
//STEPLIB DD DISP=SHR,DSN=fdr.loadlib
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=*
//OBJIN    DD UNIT=SYSALLDA,DISP=SHR,
//            VOL=SER=volser
//OUTPUT   DD DUMMY

This is an example of the output.

In the above listing on page 3, the version of SAR’s object code is highlighted. This can be useful to verify that the desired SAR object code was specified in the OBJIN DD when writing the IPLable version of SAR was to the specified DASD volume.
