Issue/Introduction

Is there any way to find which Broadcom mainframe products are currently using a Datacom/AD MUF region?

Environment

Release : 15.1

Component : CA Datacom/AD

Resolution

The first step is checking which product databases are currently defined on that MUF region:

1. Run a DBUTLTY CXX report on the MUF that you want to check:

   //CXXRPT   EXEC PGM=DBUTLTY,REGION=6M,PARM='/PGMMONTH=1' 
   //STEPLIB  .... (use MUF STEPLIB definitions) 
   //CAOESTOP DD  SYSOUT=* 
   //SYSPRINT DD  SYSOUT=* 
   //SYSOUT   DD  SYSOUT=* 
   //SYSPUNCH DD  DUMMY    
   //DDSNAP   DD  SYSOUT=* 
   //SNAPER   DD  SYSOUT=* 
   //SYSUDUMP DD  SYSOUT=* 
   //THRSHOUT DD  SYSOUT=*     
   //SYSIN  DD  *       
     REPORT AREA=CXX  
   /*      

2. Compare the Database IDs and their Occurrence names that you found on the report with the ones listed on the Products that Use CA Datacom/AD section of Datacom/AD documentation.

 

For example, a database with Base (i.e. DBID) 770 and OCCURRENCE CA7770 is found on the CXX report:


On the Datacom/AD documentation page you can read:


So this means that on the MUF region where you ran the CXX report, a database for the product "CA 7" is defined.

Further checks, depending on the product, must be performed to verify if the database, in addition to being defined, is currently also used.
