16a Define the base SCDS.

You must perform this step at initial installation. During migration, you might optionally perform this step if you are creating additional SCDSs.

The procedure for defining a source control data set is provided in the z/OS DFSMSdfp Storage Administration. It is possible to define several source control data sets describing different configurations; however, only one SCDS can be activated at any time.

 16b Define libraries and drives in the OAM configuration database.

You must perform this step at initial installation if you are using optical storage in your hierarchy. During migration, you might optionally perform this step if you are adding or changing libraries or drives.

Defining optical libraries and optical drives in the OAM configuration database results in data being entered in the DB2 tables. It is therefore necessary that the TSO ID of the user entering the ISMF definitions has access to DB2.
