More questions to ibm redbook sg247126

[Bjoern]

Hi,
I have a question to the redbook sg247126 (see below), page 89 (page 105 in pdf reader), point 3.

How can I put the files CICSDSW.EXMPLAPP.EXMPCAT and CICSDSW.EXMPLAPP.EXMPCONF (both VSAM) in a new GROUP in CICS named SOADEV? My problem is, that the GROUP DFH$EXBS not exist. Therefore, I can't get the transactions EGUI and ECFG.

Thanks,
Björn

Searching the SAMP or SOURCE or other CICS libs should turn up the source for them...I think.....

Hi Cics Guy,
now it works. The problem was that I logged in a wrong cics. Now, I can see the group DFH$EXBS.

But now I have a new problem. I had installed the group soadev. Later I have seen errors in the files inside the group. I have corrected the errors and now I would like to install the group soadev again. But I get the following messages:

Code: Select all

INSTALL GROUP(SOADEV)
MESSAGES - USE ENTER TO RETURN
 S Install failed because an existing definition for file EXPCAT could not be deleted.
 S Install failed because an existing definition for file EXPCNF could not be deleted.
 W GROUP SOADEV has been partially installed.


How can I install the group again?

Regards,
Björn

IIRC, close and disable the file definitions, that should allow them to be deleted......

Hello,

If all else fails (or the system security blocks your effort) an overnight re-cycle should do it

Hi Cics Guy and Dick,
thanks for your answers.

@Dick: It's the only one that doesn't work.
@CicsGuy: I'm sorry. I don't understand what you mean. How can I close and disable the file definitions?
