Allocating data sets for the Dynamic Workload Console reporting feature

Use the EQQPCS09 member generated by the EQQJOBS installation aid and contained in the output library specified on the CREATE SAMPLE JOB JCL panel (EQQJOBS3) to define and allocate:
  • The GDG base entry used for old current plan backup which is created during the daily plan batch process, when you specify the BATCHOPT statement with the JRUNHISTORY parameter set to YES. The GDG data set is identified in the daily planning EXTEND or REPLAN batch job by the EQQOCPBK ddname.
  • The VSAM data set where the archiving process copies each generation data set. Allocate the VSAM data set with the same characteristics as the current plan VSAM data set, because it is used to store the old current plan.

For detailed information about the archiving process, see Managing the Workload.
