DB2 graphic QMF Version 8

Step 14a. Bind the packages

After the bind parameters have been specified, the dialog is ready to bind the packages. The Select Action Mode panel is used to select the mode (foreground or batch) in which this action should be performed. If foreground is selected, the packages will be bound while you wait. If batch is selected, JCL to perform the bind is generated and submitted.

Table 125. Select Action Mode
DB2P -- Select Action Mode ------------------------------------------- 8.1.0
Command ===>
 
Press ENTER to perform this action.
Type CAN or CANCEL or press PF3 to cancel this action.
 
Mode.................. ===>   (F=Foreground, B=Batch)
 
 
If selecting batch, specify the following parameters:
 
1. Job Cards...
    ===>
    ===>
    ===>
    ===>
 
2. Write JCL To...
    Data Set........... ===>
    Member............. ===>
 
3. Edit or Submit JCL? ===>   (E=Edit, S=Submit)

If you press Enter and Mode is set to F, the packages will be bound online. The HPO Configuration Dialog invokes the CLIST named RAABINDP (found in QMFHPO.SRAACLST) to perform the online bind. You can review RAABINDP to ensure that the BIND parameters are consistent with your site's standards. After this action has completed, you will return to the HPO Configuration Dialog Selection Menu.

If you press Enter and Mode is set to B, JCL to perform the bind in batch will be generated and edited or submitted. This JCL also invokes the CLIST named RAABINDP. After this action has completed, you will return to the HPO Configuration Dialog Selection Menu.

If you press PF3, you will return to the HPO Configuration Dialog Selection Menu and the packages will not be bound.

The fields on the panel are:

Mode
Enter F to perform the bind online. Enter B to generate JCL to perform the bind in batch.
Job Cards
Enter valid job cards for the job. At least one line must be entered. Any lines specified will be used exactly as entered in the generated JCL.
Data Set
Enter the data set to which the generated JCL should be written. The data set must exist. If the name is enclosed in single quotes, it is taken to be a fully qualified TSO data set name. Otherwise, your current TSO profile prefix is used to qualify the name. If it is a PDS, do not specify a member name here; instead, use the Member field. You can also enter the name *TEMP to specify that a temporary data set should be created for the JCL.
Member
If the specified Data Set is a PDS, enter the name of the member to which the generated JCL should be written. If the Data Set is not a PDS or is *TEMP, this field must be left blank.
Edit or Submit JCL?
Enter E to edit the generated JCL or S to automatically submit it after it is generated.
