Products

• Datacom
• Datacom/AD
• CA 7 Workload Automation

Issue/Introduction

Migrating CA7 from R11.3 to V12.1, and installed Datacom 15.1.

Which Datacom startup option parameters in AXDATIN1/AXDATIN2 should be used to improve the performance for CA 7?

Environment

z/OS

 

Resolution

The CA 7 recommended Datacom options are documented in section Datacom/AD MUF Startup Options for CA 7 under section Configure Datacom/AD for Use with CA 7:

The options are specified in these members of the CUSMAC library for the MUF:

• • AXDATIN1
  • AXDATIN2

These members correspond to the CA 7 CAL2OPTN library members:

• • AL2MUFS1
  • AL2MUFS2

These CAL2OPTN members have the option settings that CA 7 needs. If you are dedicating a MUF solely to the service of CA 7, replace:

 datacom-CUSMAC(AXDATIN1) with ca7-CAL2OPTN(AL2MUFS1)
 datacom-CUSMAC(AXDATIN2) with ca7-CAL2OPTN(AL2MUFS2)

If CA7 and Datacom are running in different LPARs then a change needs to be made to these options to enable XCF support. See article "Configuring Datacom MUF for XCF use" which explains how to do this. See also CA7 MUF gets U0004 when using AL2MUFS1 member
