HP XP P9000 Business Continuity Manager User Guide (T5253-96086, November 2013)

Example of a JCL for volume initialization of command devices
NOTE: This procedure is not necessary for P9500, XP24000/XP20000, or XP12000/XP10000
disk arrays.
The following JCL example demonstrates initializing the volume and allocating the VTOC using
these parameters:
• Emulation type: 3990.
• 1 cylinder, 15 tracks.
• Device number: 73DA.
• Volume sequence number: SOFTDA.
• The device number is placed offline before JCL is submitted.
//INIT EXEC PGM=ICKDSF
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=A
//SYSIN DD *
INSTALL UNITADDRESS (73DA) NOVERIFY
INIT UNITADDRESS(73DA) VOLID(SOFTDA) -
NOVERIFY NOVALIDATE -
NOCHECK VTOC(0,1,14) NOINDEX
/*
The following JCL example demonstrates placing the device number offline before the JCL is
submitted, using fifteen tracks of one cylinder.
//INIT EXEC PGM=ICKDSF
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=A
//SYSIN DD *
INIT UNITADDRESS(73DA) VOLID(SOFTDA) -
NOVERIFY NOVALIDATE -
NOCHECK VTOC(0,1,14) NOINDEX
/*
The following JCL example demonstrates allocating the command device protection dataset.
• The device number corresponding to the volume is used to place the volume online before JCL
is submitted.
• The device number corresponding to the volume is used to place the volume offline after the
dataset is allocated
//BR14 EXEC PGM=IEFBR14
//SJREXX DD DSN=COPYCNTL.COMDEV.APID0001.NY.N01,
// VOL=SER=SOFTDA,DISP=(NEW,KEEP),
// SPACE=(ABSTR,(8235,15))
