Would like to set up access to a remote system from a local system to execute RC/Extract or Db2 for z/OS (RCX).
To set up your system for remote access you will need to do the following:
In the SETUPxx member in the hlq.CDBAPARM dataset for every local SSID you will need to identify the remote SSIDs within the local SSID that you want to access.
For example:
SSID (xxxx) <<--- LOCAL SUBSYSTEM
LOCATION (LOCAL)
SSIDVERF (V12R1M502) <<--- DB2 Function Level of this subsystem
SSIDVERC (V12R1M502) <<--- DB2 Catalog Level of this subsystem
LOCSSID (yyyy) <<--- REMOTE SUBSYSTEM
LOCATION (yyyy location) <<--- Value from SYSIBM.LOCATIONS for remote subsystem
Then on the RC/EXTRACT Target Mapping screen within RC/Extract you will specify the following (conforming to the above setup for example):
Source SSID ===> xxxx Target SSID ===> xxxx
Location ===> LOCAL Location ===> yyyy location
The Source and Target SSID indicate the Source SSID and the Location for the Target SSID indicates the LOCATION from the SYSIBM.LOCATIONS table for the Target SSID.
Create a SETUP Global Parmlib Member
Specify the following values to create the remote location list:
Location (LOCATION | DRDALOC)
This value must be unique and must match the value that is entered in the LOCATION column of the SYSIBM.LOCATIONS table.
Location Subsystem ID (LOCSSID)
Required only for z/OS locations.
Location Type (Panel Only)
Indicates whether the Db2 subsystem is running on z/OS (ZOS) or a remote DBMS system that supports DRDA access (DRDA). This column determines
whether the parameter name for the DDF location of the subsystem uses LOCATION or DRDALOC in the SETUP parmlib member in hlq.CDBAPARM.
