Setting up the LICON data sets

Define and initialize LICON data sets, create RDEs to register the correct DMB information, and serialize the LICON data sets. At least one LICON data set must be present to activate Integrity Checker.

Before you begin

See Integrity Checker configuration requirements to determine the number of LICON data sets to create.

Procedure

The following steps describe how to set up a single LICON data set. If more than one LICON data set is required for your environment, complete the following steps for each LICON data set.
  1. Defining and initializing the LICON data set
    Define the LICON data set by using the DEFINE cluster command, and initialize it by using the INIT.LICON command of the LICON utility.
  2. Creating an RDE to register DMB information
    Create an RDE to register the correct DMB information by using the LICON utility.
  3. Serializing the LICON data set
    This step is optional. If you want more than one MVS™ system to access the LICON data set, you must serialize the LICON data set.
