Issue/Introduction

How does one become an administrator of a view database? Also, how is the sysout collected to the view database?

Environment

Release : View 12.2

Resolution

1) To set someone as the View administrator, do the following:

. Run a SARINIT job, as follows:

//XXXXXXXX JOB ...
//SARINIT1 EXEC PGM=SARINIT
//STEPLIB DD DISP=SHR,DSN=VIEW.CVDELOAD <=== Modify, if used
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD *
NAME=view_hlq <=== Modify DB high-level qualifier
MASTER=xxxxxxxx
/*
//

. If you are logged in to View, log out.
. Log in to View.
. At the Primary panel Command line, issue command "DEF USER"
. Find the ID in the list.
. Look in the "M" column (for Master), and ensure there is a value of "Y".
. Note: If you want to assign Master Authority to others, you can give them a value of "Y" as well.


2) The combination of SARINIT CLSL/DEST/FORM is used for the View SARSTC task to collect sysout from the spool.

Adjust these SARINIT parameters accordingly:

. CLSL
. DEST
. FORM

Sysout to be collected should be in the output queue, as View will not process sysout from the held queue.
