CA Deliver - Versioning the Deliver Database

Products

• Deliver

Issue/Introduction

I am in the process of upgrading CA-View and CA-Deliver. I have completed most tasks. I have versioned the SAR database to 14.0.

Does the Deliver database need to be versioned or does it get versioned?

If it does get versioned does it use the same process?

 

 

Environment

Release : 14.0

Component : CA Deliver

Resolution

Just like the View database is versioned up, using the SARDBASE program and the "VERSION nn.n" function, the Deliver database needs to be versioned up as well. 

The reason for versioning is because database records change in size (fields being expanded or fields being added) and the database needs to reflect those changes. 

 ==> Note: Please ensure that the Deliver database is down (using "/F rmostc,OFF) before doing the versioning.

Here is JCL to run a RMODBASE VERSION:

//XXXXXXXX JOB ...                                              
//RMODBASE EXEC PGM=RMODBASE,PARM='DLVR_HLQ' <=== MODIFY DB NAME
//STEPLIB  DD  DISP=SHR,DSN=DLVR.CVDELOAD   <=== MODIFY, IF USED
//SYSPRINT DD  SYSOUT=*                                         
//SYSIN    DD   *                                               
VERSION NN.N                                                    
/*                                                              
//                                                              

After running the VERSIONs, please be sure that you run the following, to bring in the most recent panels and banners:

 . . SARDBASE OLOAD
 . . SARDBASE BLOAD

 . . RMODBASE OLOAD
 . . RMODBASE BLOAD
