Creating and associating DB2 entries

Some products and components do not require DB2® entries. If your product or component requires DB2 entries, you can customize it only on DB2 entries that are created and associated with the product or the component.

1. Issue the ASSOCIATE command on the Customizer Workplace panel. The Associate DB2 Entry for Product or the panel is displayed.
   Figure 1. The Associate DB2 Entry for Product panel

   CCQPDAD                 Associate DB2 Entry for Product               16:25:46 
   Command ===>                                                  Scroll ===> PAGE 
                                                                                  
   Select any of the following DB2 entries to add them to the Customizer          
   Workplace panel. You use the Customizer Workplace panel to choose the DB2      
   subsystems, data sharing members, and group attach names on which to           
   customize the product.                                                         
                                                                                  
   Commands:  CREATE - Create new DB2 entries                                     
                                                                                  
   DB2 Entries                                                                    
     Line commands: A - Associate  C - Copy  D - Delete                           
     Cmd SSID GrpAttch                                                            
         *    *                                                                 
   ------------------------------ End of DB2 entries ----------------------------

2. Create DB2 entries. If you need to associate DB2 entries that are already in the master list, skip this step and go to step 3.
   1. Issue the CREATE command to create one DB2 entry, or issue CREATE nn to create multiple DB2 entries, where nn is the number of new entries to be created. The Create DB2 Entries panel is displayed, as shown in the following figure:
      Figure 2. The Create DB2 Entries panel

       CCQPCDB                    Create DB2 Entries                    Row 1 of 1 
       Command ===>                                               Scroll ===> PAGE 
                                                                                   
       Specify the SSID, the group attach name, or both in the appropriate columns 
       for each new DB2 entry and press Enter. To create additional entries, issue 
       the Inn line command, where nn is the number of entries to be inserted, and 
       press Enter. To cancel, press End.                                          
                                                                                   
       New DB2 Entries                                                             
         Line commands: I - Insert into list   R - Remove from list                
         Cmd  SSID  GrpAttch  Message                                              
                                                                                   
       --------------------------- End of DB2 entries ---------------------------- 

      
   2. In the appropriate columns, specify a DB2 subsystem ID, DB2 group attach name, or DB2 data sharing member name for the DB2 entry that you want to create, and press Enter. Valid values are 1 - 4 characters. You can use symbolic characters. You cannot use blanks.
      Tips:

      • To insert multiple DB2 entries, specify the Inn line command, where nn is the number of DB2 entries to be inserted.
      • You will define specific parameters for these new DB2 entries, such as parameters that define a subsystem as primary, on the DB2 Parameters panel. This panel is displayed after you select these new DB2 entries and issue the line command to generate the jobs, after you issue the primary command to generate the jobs for all associated DB2 entries, or when you manually edit the DB2 parameters.
      The Associate DB2 Entry for Product panel is displayed, and the new DB2 entry is displayed in the master list.

      Select any of the following DB2 entries to add them to the Customizer          
      Workplace panel. You use the Customizer Workplace panel to choose the DB2      
      subsystems, data sharing members, and group attach names on which to           
      customize the product.                                                         
                                                                                     
      Commands:  CREATE - Create new DB2 entries                                     
                                                                                     
      DB2 Entries       
        Line commands: A - Associate  C - Copy  D - Delete                             
        Cmd SSID GrpAttch                                                     
            *    *  
            DBAA  --                                                                       
            DBAB  --                                                                       
            DBAC  --                                                               
      ------------------------------ End of DB2 entries -----------------------------

   3. Repeat steps b and c for each DB2 entry that you want to create.
   4. When you have created all the DB2 entries, associate them with the product or the component, or press End to display the Customizer Workplace panel.
3. Associate DB2 entries.
   1. Specify A against one or more DB2 entries in the master list, and press Enter to associate them with the product or the component.
