Error description

• Provide a way to clone an IMS subsystem using dataset level
  copies to copy the source environment to the target.
  1. With RENAME these error/warning messages come out if target
  VVDS/VTOC does not match source.
  GCL11041E TARGET VOLUME IMS001 IS NOT IN A PROPER STATE FOR
  RENAME
  GCL11033W VOLUME CONVERSION BYPASSED FOR WAG049/IMS001 DUE TO
  PRIOR ERRORS
  2. IMSUPDATE needs to be able to execute if RENAME SIM is used.

Problem conclusion

Temporary fix

Comments

• 1.Add new IMS Subsystem Cloning keyword, ALLOW-RENAME-SIM, to
  IMSUPDATE command to indicate that the IMSUPDATE command can
  update IMS data sets even though the previous RENAME command
  was run with SIMULATE.
  2.Add new IMS Subsystem Cloning keyword, NOT-RENAMED-JCLPDS-
  LIST(N|Y), to IMSUPDATE command to specify whether a list of
  the data sets not renamed is to be produced by IMSUPDATE JCLPDS
  processing.
  3.Add new Database Cloning keyword, DBRC-ACTION(REDEFINE|
  REORG,ICOFF|NOICOFF), to IMSDBREFRESH command to indicate
  that DBRC action to perform for the target databases after
  refreshing them.
  4.Add new Database Cloning keyword, LOGICALLY-RELATED(Y|N),
  to IMSDBREFRESH command to indicate whether or not a database
  should be copied if not all logically related databases are
  copied in the same command.
  5.Add the following new parameters to the DB_COPY_OPTIONS
  section of GCLINI:
  DBRC_ACTION = REDEFINE|REORG
  SET_IC_NEEDED_OFF = Y/N
  6.  Add new message GCL32314I.
