How to copy my Application Name Definition List (/IPAPPLS) from one region to another?

Resolution

On the region you want to COPY FROM enter Packet Analyzer : Utilities Menu (/IPAUTIL) then select EA for Export Packet Analyzer Application Definitions and update the DSN field. This will write out the entries to the DSN -

 

 <region>---------------- Packet Analyzer : Utilities Menu ---------------/IPAUTIL

Select Option ===>

   B   - Browse Dataset                                     -

   EA  - Export Packet Analyzer Application Definitions     -

   IA  - Import Packet Analyzer Application Definitions     -

   IAD - Import SOLVE Dataspace Application Definitions     -

   PA  - Maintain Packet Analysis Requests                  IPPAREQ

   X   - Exit

 

Data Set Name ......   <hlq>.testexec(test)

                               ( Required B EA IA IAD )

 

You should receive a FADBADF02 message when the EXPORT is complete.

 

To IMPORT the Application Name Definition List on COPY TO region you will need to delete any duplicate 'Application Name Definition' entries in /IPAPPLS.

 

Select Packet Analyzer : Utilities Menu (/IPAUTIL) and this time you will select IA - Import Packet Analyzer Application Definitions and fill in the Data Set name that was created above.

 

You will receive output for entries that have been added or not.

 

For example:

Packet Analyzer Application Name Entries

 

  Order ..... 0     added

  Order ..... 1     not added, already exists.

  Order ..... 5     not added, already exists.

  Order ..... 7     not added, already exists.
