Setting the operating environment by using system symbols
To statically set the following operating environments by using system symbols, define the IEASYMxx
parmlib member.
• The prefix of the license information dataset that registers the license key
• Whether the system logger service is used to collect event logs
• Whether CLI command execution logs are output to SYSLOG
1. Define the following line in the IEASYMxx parmlib member.
SYMDEF(system-symbol='system-symbol-value')
2. After an IPL is performed again, use the KTDSPENV command to confirm that the system symbols
have been specified correctly.
START KTDSPENV,PARM='DETAIL'
Example of defining the IEASYMxx parmlib member
• When setting the name of the license information dataset to HPQ1.HPQ2.CCENTRAL.LICENSE
SYMDEF(&YKLCNSE='HPQ1')
SYMDEF(&YKLCNS2='HPQ2')
• When specifying whether to use the system logger service to collect event logs
SYMDEF(&YKLOGPT='LOGR') (if using the system logger service)
SYMDEF(&YKLOGPT='SAM') (if not using the system logger service)
• When specifying whether to output CLI command execution logs to SYSLOG
SYMDEF(&YKSYSLG='YES') (if outputting to SYSLOG)
SYMDEF(&YKSYSLG='NO') (if not outputting to SYSLOG)
TIP:
We recommend that you use either the environment variables or the system symbols to specify both
prefix-1 and prefix-2. If you use the environment variables to specify prefix-1, and use the
system symbols to specify prefix-2, the process of determining the prefixes will be complicated.
