Configure the MAIN Options
You now need to configure the MAIN options used by FDR/UPSTREAM z/OS. These options define system-wide processing used by UPSTREAM. From the UPSTREAM main menu below, which we first saw in Start the FDR/UPSTREAM ISPF Interface, select option 4 (“Configure”):
FDR/UPSTREAM - Main ISPF Panel
COMMAND ===> v3.9.3
9 USTBATCH - Host Initiated Services
10 STATUS - Current Status Information
11 DEFINE - Define Control Files
12 CONFIGURE - Main Options
13 PROFILE - Client Profile Names
14 OPER - Operator Commands
15 REPORT - Report
16 REGISTRY - Name Registry
13 SCHEDULE - Command Scheduler
14 MANAGEMENT - Backup Management
15 USTCRYPT - USTCRYPT Options
11 Active Jobs:
Sel Jobname System #ACTTCP/IP Address PORT VTAM APL
--- ------- ------ ---- -------------- ---- --------
S USTPRODA CPUA 1192.168.0.1 2001 USTSAPPL
USTPRODP CPUA VERSION <3.9.1
UI CPUB 192.168.0.2 1972 NONE
USTEURO CPUE INACTIVE
In the subsequent menu you select the name (and optionally a member name, if a PDS) of your UPSTREAM configuration data set. The first time you enter this screen, specify the input data set and member name as a blank, and specify the output data set and member name to match the names you previously specified in Define the “CONFIG” Configuration File. UPSTREAM will then initialize the configuration file for use and provide a default set of system-wide option values.
FDR/UPSTREAM - Configure Main Options Configuration Data Set
COMMAND ===>
Input Configuration data set: (optional - blank for default values)
Data set name ===>
Member name ===>
Output Configuration data set:
Data set name ===> 'your.upstream.configuration.dataset'
Member name ===> UPSTREAM
Press enter to display the main options.
Note: Changes to the active configuration do not take effect until the
operator command F UPSTREAM,REFRESH is issued from a system console or
by the OPER dialog (option 6), or by stopping and re-starting UPSTREAM.
Once you have completely entered the data, press the ENTER key to proceed to the next configuration screen.
The subsequent screen displays all of the UPSTREAM MAIN configuration options. The configuration can be saved by entering SAVE on the top line and pressing ENTER. Each option is described below.
