ICS2WLM is a REXX designed to help you when starting out on the GOAL mode trail. The authors (Sparkasse Cologne) placed this REXX on one of the bitserv groups and got flamed by a certain system guru with an attitude, so to prevent any misunderstanding please read the following: It does NOT create a ready to run WLM, mainly because the information required is not in the ICS. You must complete the process by reading Title: OS/390 V1R3.0 MVS Planning: Workload Management Document Number: GC28-1761-02 and using the WLM utility. That being said it does save a great deal of time if you have large and complex ICS member(s). You use it by creating a blank WLM definition dataset. ex 'SYS1.SBLSCLI0(IWMARIN0)' 3 select the file pull down select save as type in a dataset name (lets call it wlm) 1 PF12 and then enter %ICS2WLM 'SYS1.PARMLIB(IEAICS00)' WLM you can then carry on editing the updated WLM with ex 'SYS1.SBLSCLI0(IWMARIN0)' 1 The authors of the program would love to hear from you if you have suggestions on making it better or just plain comments. You can contact me (the humble translator and facilitator) at mailto:alan@nichols.de and I will forward your comments on to the authors.
