If you generate the XML converter by using Rational® Developer
for System z®, you need
to deploy it to IMS Connect.
- The XML adapter function must be configured in IMS Connect. For more information, see IMS 14
System Definition information.
- The Rational Developer
for System z host
configuration must be completed. For more information, see the Rational Developer
for System z Host Configuration
Guide.
- The Rational Developer
for System z
SFEKLOAD (V8.0.x)
or SFEKLMOD (V8.5 or later) module must be concatenated to the STEPLIB
of the IMS Connect startup JCL in order to
generate IRZ error messages to assist troubleshooting.
To deploy the XML converter to IMS
Connect:
-
Use FTP to copy the XML converter that is generated
by Rational Developer
for System z to
your host data set.
-
Compile and bind the XML converter to the target
host data set.
To compile and bind the converters
into a data set concatenated with the IMS Connect
STEPLIB:
- The converter must have an alias that is linked with the converter
code, using the same name as the converter, with an X suffix. If the
converter name is eight-character long, the last character for the
alias must be changed to an X.
- The converter and the load module name must end with the letter
D.
- The converter should be linked with
the option REUS=SERIAL so that the converter is loaded into the memory
only once.
- In the step to link edit the converter, the SYSLMOD statement must specify a PDSE.
For example, if your converter file name is IMSSGWS1D. Your JCL
would contain ENTRY, ALIAS, and NAME statements as follows:
//LINK EXEC PGM=HEWL,COND=(4,LT),
// PARM='XREF,COMPAT=MIN,REUS=SERIAL'
...
ENTRY IMSSGWS1D
ALIAS IMSSGWS1X
NAME IMSSGWS1D(R)
