What to do next
If your IMS system supports IMS-managed ACBs and DDL, you can submit your updated definitions as DDL statements directly to IMS. The DDL is generated automatically by IMS Explorer. For more information, see Submitting DBD definitions to IMS systems that support DDL.
To use the updated definitions with the IMS generation utilities, you must export the DBD generation utility macro instruction statements to IMS and follow the IMS process for changing resources by using the generation utilities. To export the macro instructions to IMS, see Exporting IMS resources to z/OS.
