Allocating Data Store data sets

At this stage of your installation, use the EQQPCS04 member generated by the EQQJOBS installation aid. It is contained in the output library specified on the CREATE DATA STORE SAMPLES panel (EQQJOBS5). Submit the EQQPCS04 job to define and initialize the Data Store VSAM files.

Note:
You can omit this step if you are migrating from a previous Tivoli Workload Scheduler for z/OS version.

The Data Store VSAM files can be of three types:

Unstructured
The type associated to EQQUDFxx; used to save joblogs. These files are allocated only when the Joblog Retrieval option in panel EQQJOBS7 is set to Y.
Structured
The type associated to EQQSDFxx; used to save structured joblog information. These files are required.
KSDS
The type used for EQQPKIxx and EQQSKIxx.

They are listed and described in Table 27:
