This take-up copies the personal system definitions from your personal profile library to the shared system definitions in an HDB register. This makes the definitions available to all users of the HDB register.

You can select the types of definition to copy:

Systems and groups, but not files
If a group in your personal system definitions already exists in the HDB register, then take-up adds the systems to the group in the HDB register.
Files, but not systems or groups
Only copies files belonging to systems that already exist in the HDB register.
Systems, groups, and files
All definitions.

Before performing take-up, delete any personal system definitions that you do not want copied to the HDB register. Consider making a backup copy of your personal profile library and the HDB register.

Take-up does not replace definitions with the same name in the HDB register. If a file with the same data set name exists in both your personal system definitions and the HDB register, then take-up does not affect the file definition in the HDB register.

Take-up copies files to the HDB register as cyclic files with an Origin value of NONE. If the file has an origin, then, after take-up, edit the file definition in the HDB register.
