Re-creating the current plan from the new-current-plan and EQQJTARC

About this task

If all current plan data sets have been damaged or lost but the new current plan still exists and is valid, it is possible to get HCL Workload Automation for Z to take over the new current plan again. This is a better alternative than using refresh because the resulting current plan will normally be up-to-date.

Perform the following procedure:
  1. Stop HCL Workload Automation for Z.
  2. Add the parameter CURRPLAN(NEW) to the JTOPTS statement. When you start HCL Workload Automation for Z, it will:
    1. Use the new current plan data sets (EQQNCPDS and EQQNCXDS) as input.
    2. Copy EQQNCPDS to either EQQCP1DS or EQQCP2DS.
    3. Copy EQQNCXDS to EQQCXDS, then load the CX data space from EQQCXDS.
    4. Apply all events from the job-tracking archive log (EQQJTARC). If HCL Workload Automation for Z did not end normally, events are applied also from the job-tracking log that was in use when HCL Workload Automation for Z ended.

    In this way, HCL Workload Automation for Z re-creates the current plan.

  3. Start HCL Workload Automation for Z.
  4. Delete CURRPLAN(NEW) from the JTOPTS statement.
