Define QMF programs and transactions to CICS

QMF provides help to define the QMF programs and transactions to CICS:

• By providing a batch job that defines the QMF resources to the CICS CSD
• By providing copybooks that can be included in the CICS PPT and PCT

Define the QMF programs to the CSD using the job DSQ3ECDS (and DSQ3nCSD for NLF installs).

Update the CSD

This procedure creates a new LIST called QMF, which is defined in the CSD. Additionally, for each language, a GROUP called QMF720n is defined in the LIST QMF. QMF720n contains the definition of the QMF programs and transactions (E for English).

1. Punch the following member to ICCF using this command:

   LIBRP PRD2.PROD DSQ3ECSD.Z DSQ3nCSD (REPLACE

   Press Enter.
2. Punch equivalent NLF members to ICCF. Substitute the NLID for the n in the following example:

   LIBRP PRD2.PROD DSQ3nCSD.Z DSQ3nCSD (REPLACE

   Press Enter.
3. Edit DSQ3ECSD (or DSQ3nCSD for NLF)
   1. Delete the first line of the file, starting with CATALOG.
   2. Change all instances of ..* to * with the following command:

      ch /..*/*/ *

   3. Delete the last two lines of the file, leaving the end-of-job statement.
4. Check that the file ID and catalog reflect your CSD:

   // DLBL DFHCSD,'CICS.CSD',,VSAM,CAT=VSESPUC

5. Verify that the library and sublibrary names in the POWER statements are the QMF library and sublibrary names:

   * $$ SLI MEM=DSQ3ECDN.A,S=PRD2.PROD
   * $$ SLI MEM=DSQ3BCDB.A,S=PRD2.PROD

   For NLF:

   * $$ SLI MEM=DSQ3nCDN.A,S=PRD2.PROD

6. File and run the job. Ensure the job completes with a return code of 0 or 4.
