Version 4.6.2
 —  Installation and Operations for BS2000  —

Installation: Phase 2

REVEXITB for BS2000 is supplied in the module RDBLXBS2 for TIAM, batch, and UTM applications. This module should be linked to ADALNK, as described in the steps in this document. A sample job is provided in REVvrs.SRC(P.ADALNK).

Note:
If you elect to use the link routine ADALNKX, link the batch Adabas Review routine RDBLXBS2 and RDBLKIND to ADALNK ensuring that the symbols ADALNKDA, SSFB2C and ADAL2P are not hidden.


Step 1. Install REVEXITB for the Adabas Link Routines

Important:
If an ADALNK batch link routine has been modified to accommodate the needs of an Adabas product extension (such as Adabas Review), it should not be used for the Adabas nucleus or Adabas utility jobs.

Note:
If you are not using a procedure, the above /SET-FILE-LINK statement must be supplied before calling Natural online.
