Define the "CONFIG" Configuration File


The FDR/UPSTREAM configuration data set contains options describing and controlling the various processes that can run with UPSTREAM (backups, restores, utility functions, etc) as well as options controlling the behavior of the FDR/UPSTREAM system itself.

The configuration data set is a sequential or partitioned data set (PDS is recommended) and it must have the following DCB characteristics: RECFM=FB, LRECL=120, and a block size that is a multiple of 120. 

Selecting option 1 (“CONFIG”) from the define menu takes you to the panel shown below, where you define the parameters for the allocation of the configuration data set.
