Parameter Group BASIC

The parameter group BASIC contains parameters which are used for general tasks of SMA. The following tables show the most important parameters grouped by task.

Note:
In this section, the term "tape" represents any installation media (e.g. tape and CD-ROM) supported by Software AG. The information provided here applies to the use of any of these media.


SMA Jobs and Procedures

Parameter Name Default Value Function
ENVMOD #V-JOBLIB# Name of environment module library
ENVSIGN SMA Environment Sign
JCLGEN-COUNTER JCL001 LMS version of the elements in the libraries JOBLIB, REPLIB and ENVMOD
JOBLIB #V-ENVSIGN#.JOBLIB Name of the SMA job library
JOBPASS X'00000000' File protection password
LOGON-PARM Blank Logon parameter (ISP syntax)
SMA2 N Used to indicate that SMA Version 2 is being used. For more information, see Parameter SMA2 below.

Parameter SMA2

The parameter SMA2 is used to indicate that the SMA application is running under SMA Version 2. After SMA Version 2 is installed, this parameter must be set to Y in all environments (including the BS2000/OSD default environment). You can use the command TV (Transfer Value) in the Modify Parameter menu to set this parameter to Y in all environments.

This parameter was introduced to enable a smooth transition to the new procedure P.SMA which executes all SMA functions which are necessary for the administration and installation of Software AG products.

The procedure P.SMA replaces the following procedures and data elements which were used under SMA Version 1:

  • P.SMAHOME

  • P.TABLOAD

  • P.JCLGEN

  • SMA.TABLOAD

  • SMA.COMMIT.ENVIRONM

  • SMA.COMMIT.TAPE

  • SMA.COMMIT.ZAPS

Executing SMA Functions

Parameter Name Default Value Function
NATPHSE-SMA NATPHSE-SMA Name of the Natural phase which is used to execute the JCL generation
SMALIB #V-JOBLIB# Name of the library where the procedure P.SMA is located
SMALIB-P blank If the library SMALIB is protected the password can be specified here
