Example 5: Placing an additional product under MULC

z/OS MVS Product Management
SA23-1391-00

In the following example the customer has installed BatchPipes/MVS on a processor on which CICS® and TSO/E are already being billed under measured usage and has chosen to place BatchPipes® under MULC. In this example, the customer executed IFAURP on a date after the product's initial measurement period has ended.

This example builds on Example 2: Placing a product under the measured usage option where the customer started measured usage pricing for CICS and TSO/E and is still unable to place IMS™ TM under the MULC option, because the IMS MULC PTFs have not yet activated on all LPARs on the processor.

/*  
  • //STEPLIB references the IBM® library, SYS1.SIFALIB, which contains IFAURP and IBM product exits. The MULC PTF cover letter for BatchPipes indicates that IFAURP 1.2.0 (OW11350) is required to process BatchPipes usage data and a BatchPipes-specific IBM vendor exit must be installed in SYS1.SIFALIB. However, in the first Software Usage Report produced for this example the customer neglects to install the required IBM vendor exit.
  • See Example 2: Placing a product under the measured usage option for information about both //SYSMSGS and //SYSPRINT files.
  • //SMFDATA references a daily SMF dump file containing the type 89 records for June 24th.
  • //SYSHIN references the current version(0) of history file MULC.HISTORY.#1234567, which contains the previous control statements, as well as, all the usage data that has been previously processed.
  • //SYSHOUT references a the newest version (+1) of the history file, MULC.HISTORY.#1234567, that is be created as a result of this step. The last qualifier, #1234567, designates the IBM customer number for the processor from which the usage data was collected. See Example 2: Placing a product under the measured usage option for additional information on this history file.

    See Example 2: Placing a product under the measured usage option for an explanation of the remaining DD statements.

  • CUSTOMER This control statement is required and must precede all other control statements. The customer has provided values for the NAME, ADDRESS, CONTACT and PHONE keywords.
  • VENDOR This control statement is no longer necessary, because it has already been processed and its values saved in this history file in the previous example.
  • PROCESSOR This control statement identifies the specific processor and products for which action is to be taken.
    (9021,952,01111)
    This field is used to identify the specific processor for which the remainder of the keywords apply. In the US the last 5 digits of the processor serial number are used to identify the processor. Outside the US this 5 digit serial number must be prefixed with a two digit manufacturing location.
    PRODUCT
    This set of control statements defines only the product being added.
    PRODOWNER
    All IBM products require the value IBM CORP for this field.
    PRODNAME
    Only BATCHPIPES/MVS is required, because the PRODNAME control statements for CICS and TSO/E have been saved on the history file by Example 2: Placing a product under the measured usage option and will be automatically reprocessed on this execution. Note that the entire upper case name, ‘BATCHPIPES/MVS’, is required as the PRODNAME value.
    START
    This keyword actually triggers IFAURP to begin processing BatchPipes as a measured usage product by listing the product and its usage values in the “Billing” section of the Software Usage Report. The value of 19950522 signifies the fact that the customer has met both key requirements of the START keyword on that date. See the START keyword in Example 2: Placing a product under the measured usage option for additional information.
    Note: The ALIGN option is not available to BatchPipes because the measurement periods for this entire processor have already been determined by the defaults taken by the first measured usage product on this processor (CICS).
