Your HDB environment is controlled by the HDB Register. The HDB Register is a VSAM KSDS that acts as a repository for all definitions associated with your HDB environment:
The HDB Register is also a repository for the following definitions that are not associated with HDBs:
It is recommended that you share the HDB Register with other CICS PA users so that you only need to generate history data once, allowing multiple users to report against it. There is no limit to the number of HDB Registers you can define.

When the Register is defined, you are ready to start using HDB.
