Updating APPC options

You must update APPC options to associate the Tivoli Workload Scheduler for z/OS scheduler (the subsystem) with the local LU that you defined earlier. Do this by updating the APPCPMnn member of SYS1.PARMLIB. Here is an example of an APPCPMnn member:

APPCPMnn example
LUADD                    /* Add local LU to APPC config.   */
   ACBNAME(IS4MEOP4)      /* Name of LU                     */
   SCHED(EOP4)            /* Scheduler name/OPC subsys name */
   TPDATA(SYS1.APPCTP)    /* Profile data set for this LU    */
   TPLEVEL(SYSTEM)        /* TP level for which LU searches */

The scheduler name must be the same as the Tivoli Workload Scheduler for z/OS subsystem name. In this example, the subsystem name is EOP4. A side information file is not used by Tivoli Workload Scheduler for z/OS. However, the LU must be associated with a TP profile data set; you need not specify a profile for Tivoli Workload Scheduler for z/OS in the data set because Tivoli Workload Scheduler for z/OS does not use TP profiles.

If you must allocate a TP profile data set, you can run a job such as:

//ALTPDSET JOB STATEMENT PARAMETERS
//TPSAMPLE EXEC PGM=IDCAMS
//VOLOUT   DD   DISP=OLD,UNIT=3380,VOL=SER=volser
//SYSPRINT DD   SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN    DD   *
        DEFINE CLUSTER (NAME(SYS1.APPCTP) -
            VOLUMES(volser) -
            INDEXED REUSE -
            SHAREOPTIONS(3 3) -
            RECORDSIZE(3824 7024) -
            KEYS(112 0) -
            RECORDS(300 150)) -
          DATA -
            (NAME(SYS1.APPCTP.DATA)) -
          INDEX -
            (NAME(SYS1.APPCTP.INDEX))

TP profile data sets are VSAM KSDS data sets.
