Customize Z Abend Investigator by using an HFZOPTLM configuration-options module

Some aspects of the Z Abend Investigator customization can only be performed via SMP/E USERMODs (for details, see Customize Z Abend Investigator by using USERMODs), while others must be performed by using an HFZOPTLM configuration-options module.

An HFZOPTLM configuration-options module can be used to provide the following configuration settings:

CNFDSN

For details, see Specifying an alternative parmlib data set for HFZCNFxx (CNFDSN).

RFRDSN

For details, see Changing the default recovery fault recording IEATDUMP data set name (RFRDSN).

CICSNOA

For details, see Changing the action of Z Abend Investigator when invoked via the CICS XDUREQ global user exit (CICSNOA).

SSCHKDSN

For details, see Specifying an alternative security server test data set name (SSCHKDSN).

XDUMPDSN

For details, see Specifying the extended minidump data set name pattern (XDUMPDSN).

SDUMPDSN

For details, see Specifying the copied SDUMP data set name pattern (SDUMPDSN).

To specify any of these settings, edit and submit a job to create an HFZOPTLM configuration-options load module. A sample job is provided as member HFZOPTLM in data set HFZ.SHFZSAM1. Options in the HFZOPTLM load module are read whenever normal options processing is performed.

The configuration-options load module must be named HFZOPTLM and it must be placed in HFZ.SHFZAUTH or another APF-authorized library. The library should also be in LNKLST so that the HFZOPTLM load module can be found by all jobs.
