Compress Data Compression for IMS for z/OS using BMC IMS Tools S0C4

Products

• Compress Data Compression (IMS Tools)
• DATABASE MANAGEMENT SOLUTIONS FOR IMS FOR Z/OS

Issue/Introduction

When we attempt to reload a partitioned database that has some compress segments (Compress Data Compression for IMS)
with BMC MAXM Reorg/EP, we received a S0C4.

Resolution

When you use IMS Compress Tools with the BMC Parallel Unload/Reload Utilities, you must use Loadlib DSN=pdsqual.SHRINK.IMSUT.LOAD

Once loaded, you must concatenate this library to the STEPLIB for any jobs which run IMS Fastpath Unload/Reload and BMC Parallel
Unload/Reload batch utilities requiring the Compress compression routines.

Note: These modules cannot be used in place of those used in the normal IMS environment.
