Migration Path Defaults

Using the maintenance functions in the Administration subsystem of PAC available in the Migration Path Defaults Menu allow you to see and modify the values of the job, batch/online, workfile usage, and copy (C)/move (M)/include (I) fields of the migration paths. Perform the modification in either of the following ways:

  • manually on screens listing migration paths (one per line);

  • automatically for all paths satisfying the selection criteria.

The facilities described in this section are also available via the SCANPATH utility. For details, see the PAC Reference documentation.

To access the defaults maintenance functions for migration paths, enter Code P on the General Defaults menu.

The Migration Path Defaults Menu appears:

Enter Code M to get a list of migration paths and for modifying manually the values of their job, batch/online, workfile usage, and copy/move/include fields.

Enter Code S for PAC to automatically modify the values of the job, batch/online, workfile usage, or copy/move/include fields of all paths which satisfy the selection criteria.

In either case, specify the migration path selection criteria. Six fields are provided:

Input Field Description

Application For the specification of a range of application names to restrict the choice of paths to those whose application names are in the range.
Origin Status For the specification of a range of status names to restrict the choice of paths to those whose origin status names are within the range.
(origin status) Type For the optional specification of a status type to restrict the choice of paths to those whose origin statuses are of the specified type.
Destination Status For the specification of a range of status names to restrict the choice of paths to those whose destination status names are within the range.
(destination status) Type For the optional specification of a status type to restrict the choice of paths to those whose destination statuses are of the specified type.
Scan for Job For the optional full (i.e., no range notation) specification of a JCL text name to restrict the choice of paths to those whose Migration Job fields contain the specified name.

The Type fields - except for synonymous "*" and " " - can take the following values: A(RCHIVE), C(ONTROL), D(evelopment), I(ncorporation), M(aintenance), R(ETIRE), and T(est).

If Code M has been entered on the Migration Path Defaults Menu and there is a migration path which satisfies the selection criteria, a Modify Migration Path Defaults screen appears:

If there is no migration path satisfying the selection criteria, a message appears on the Migration Path Defaults Menu.

Modify the values of the Job, Batch/Online, Workfile Usage, or Copy (C), Move (M), Include (I) fields as needed and press PF5 to update the corresponding fields in the migration event records. Press PF8 to go to the next screen of the list without applying the yet unapplied current screen modifications. Press PF3 to return to the Migration Path Defaults Menu without applying the current screen modifications which have not yet been applied.

Note:
The Include option is batch for the event from an externally created work file (CMWK01) and is valid for paths with an origin status of incorporation only.

Use PF10 and PF11 to list other attributes of the paths:

Specify a replacement JCL text name in the Job field to write it into the Migration Job fields of selected paths. Leave the Job field of the window blank if the Migration Job fields of the selected paths are not to be automatically updated. Also specify a value for the Batch/Online fields of selected paths if a replacement is needed. Treat the Workfile Usage and the Copy/Move/Include fields of the window similarly.

Set the Confirmation Required field to NO (N) for the replacements to go ahead for all selected paths without further confirmations.

Set the Confirmation Required field to Yes (Y) to invoke a Scan/Replace Migration Path screen for every selected path:

Five fields are unprotected on this screen: the Update Path and the four New Values fields.

You can

  • keep or enter Update (U) in the Update Path field and press ENTER or press PF5 to apply the specified replacements to the particular path;

  • modify the New Values for the particular path and then update the four fields of the particular path record by entering U in the Update Path field or pressing PF5;

  • keep or enter Ignore (I) in the Update Path field and press ENTER or just press PF3 to avoid updating the particular path and to pass on to the next selected path (or the Migration Path Defaults Menu after dealing with the last selected path);

  • press PF12 to immediately return to the Migration Path Defaults Menu.
