Issue/Introduction

Description:

After upgrading to CA Datacom/DB 12.0 to 14.0, the online DDOL signon panel for some my CICS environments still show Version 12.0 instead of 14.0.

Solution:

CA Datacom/DB 14.0 INSTJCL upgrade job BDUPG10 needs to be run for each CICS region to update the VLS file named ADRPNL. Job BDUPG10 copies the new DDOL panels from the installation backup file (...ADRPNL.BACKUP) into an existing ADRPNL VLS file.

If the DSN of the ADRPNL file in a CICS region is not known, do CICS command CEMT INQuire File(ADRPNL).
Run VLSUTIL batch utility to list the contents and check the dates.

 //VLSUTIL EXEC PGM=VLSUTIL                  
 //STEPLIB  DD DISP=SHR,DSN=your IPC load library
 //VLSFILE  DD DISP=SHR,DSN=your cics ADRPNL  
 //SYSUDUMP DD DUMMY SYSOUT =*                 
 //AUXPRINT DD SYSOUT=*                       
 //SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*                       
 //SYSIN  DD  *

Find #SCDD in the SYSPRINT and look for the three DDOL panels named...

#SCDDOF                                                                     
#SCDDOH                                                                     
#SCDDON      

The dates in the VLSUTIL library listing for Datacom/DB 14.0 DDOL panels are...

If they are not the 14.0 dates, job BDUPG10 was not yet run for this ADRPNL file.
