Creating VSAM files

The dependency and affinity data collected by the Collector is saved to CICS® IA VSAM files. You need to create them before running the Collector.

To create CICS IA VSAM files, run jobs CIUJCLCC and CIUJCLCA. When the installation and customization program completes successfully, you can find customized copies of both jobs in the SCIUSMP1 data set.

For running the collector on a single CICS region, use the customized jobs to define non-RLS files. In case you want to run the collector on multiple regions, make sure to share the dependency and affinity data files and the control record file across all the regions. To share the files, you can use VSAM RLS or function shipping of file control requests to a file owning region.
