Data Dictionary Requirements

Extracting Entities for Conversion

Please provide the following; all should be in electronic format no hard copies are required:
Once you have extracted the files, please transport them in ASCII format to your local PC, zip the files and forward them.

   
1. An export of the PROGRAMS, PANELS and REPORTS

(You will need to use the CA-IDEAL Source transport facility. See the BATCH users guide. Export all into one file if you wish)

2. An export of any sequential Dataviews

(Use the CA-IDEAL source transport facility to obtain this)

3. A print of all Dataviews in a file

(Use the PRINT DATAVIEW command in BATCH CA-IDEAL and override DD statement PRTLIST)

(Make sure you get all and you pick up the V PROD Dataviews)

4. A print of all modelled sequential Dataviews (see above)
5. A BTG export

(See your DBA of the Tables you will be converting. Use the following example JCL and PATH definitions to create a file to download to the PC. Please check the DEF TRACE definitions, as these are not the normal definitions that are used)
(Datacom 7.5 sites, please substitute FILE where appropriate)

   

JCL and path definitions used to create a file to download to the PC:
 

//STEPBTG EXEC PGM=DDBTGLM
//STEPLIB DD DSN=DATACOM.SYS2,DISP=SHR
// DD DSN=DATACOM.INFO.LODLIB,DISP=SHR
//SYSPUNCH DD SYSOUT=*
//AUXPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSLIST DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSDUMP DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//AUXOUT DD DSN=SDBTG,UNIT=DISK,DISP=(NEW,CATLG),
// DCB=(RECFM=F,LRECL=80,BLKSIZE=4000),
// SPACE=(CYL,(1,1)),UNIT=DISK
//SYSIN DD *
-USR XYX,PSW
-DEF PATH,MAINPATH
-DEF TRACE,DATABASE.AREA,$INTERNAL
-DEF TRACE,AREA.TABLE,$INTERNAL
-DEF TRACE,TABLE.FIELD,$INTERNAL
-DEF TRACE,TABLE.KEY,$INTERNAL
-DEF TRACE,TABLE.ELEMENT,$INTERNAL
-DEF TRACE,ELEMENT.DATAVIEW,$INTERNAL
-END
-BTG AUXOUT,BLKSIZE=4000
-BTG START,DATABASE,SD-CTRL(T001),MAINPATH
-END
/*

 

If in doubt about whether a table is required, please send it. It is easier to have more tables than to have to identify which tables are missing.

   
6. JCL please extract any run JCL associated with any batch jobs
7. A copy of all COBOL programs with embedded FOR constructs
8. Any native DBNTRY COBOL programs
9. Any associated COBOL copybooks
