Issue/Introduction

I am running DATACOM in SIMPLIFY mode and need help to change the CXX name .

 

Environment

z/OS CA Datacom 14.0 (and higher)

Resolution

1. Shut down the Datacom Multi-User gracefully. 
2. Run a DBUTLTY BACKUP of the CXX.
3. Run the assembly/link-edit on DBSIDPR after changing CXXNAME from 
   CXXNAME=old name to CXXNAME=new name
4. Run DBUTLTY INIT/LOAD CXX using the CXX Backup from step 2.
5. Run DBUTLTY LINK DBID=1-5000.  Use SET OPTION1=MUF_NOT_ENABLED as first card in the SYSIN. 
6. Start the Datacom Multi-User.
