Parmlib member HFZCNFxx
- 00
- A value matching the current MVS™ symbol, &SYSCLONE.
&SYSCLONE is a standard MVS™ system symbol that represents a unique one- or two-character system ID. Refer to MVS™ Initialization and Tuning Reference for information about the MVS™ &SYSCLONE symbol.
Using an HFZCNF&SYSCLONE member name permits an installation to specify different options for each MVS™ image in a sysplex, while still using a common PARMLIB data set.
The initial search is for an HFZCNF&SYSCLONE member name. If this member name is not found in any parmlib data set, then a search is made for an HFZCNF00 member.
The HFZCNFxx member can be created in SYS1.PARMLIB, or any other data set that is part of the logical parmlib concatenation.
All data sets in the logical parmlib concatenation must be given universal READ access.
If the HFZCNFxx member does not exist, then Z Abend Investigator uses the product-supplied default options. In real time, message HFZ0018W is issued.
A sample HFZCNFxx parmlib member (which might not match the sample above) is available in the HFZ.SHFZSAM1 data set as member HFZCNF00.
Note that only columns 1 - 71 of the HFZCNFxx member are processed.
- If you have installed Z Abend Investigator with a
high-level qualifier other than HFZ, then you
must include the DataSets option with specification of data sets for these DDnames:
- HFZMAPS
- HFZDOC
- If you have allocated your VSAM message and abend code explanation repository with a name other than HFZ.HFZVSENU , then you must include the DataSets option with specification of the data set name for the HFZVSENU DDname.
- If you have allocated your default history file with a name other than HFZ.HIST, then you must include the DataSets option with specification of the data set name for the HFZHIST DDname.
You can change the parmlib member whenever you need to. For example, you can change the parmlib member to exclude other types of jobs. However, you should adjust an option in the user options file if you only want to change an option for one job.
Various techniques for changing options for individual jobs are described in Where to specify options, Batch reanalysis options, and Interactive reanalysis options.
The individual options are explained in Option descriptions.
The next sections briefly describe the function of some of the other Z Abend Investigator options that you might want to consider specifying in the HFZCNFxx parmlib member. However, if you are installing Z Abend Investigator and merely want to reach a point at which the supplied IVP jobs can be run, then neither of these options are required.
In the remainder of this document, whenever references are made to the HFZCNF00 parmlib member, it is implied that the name can be either HFZCNF00, or HFZCNF&SYSCLONE.
