The I/O configuration data (IOCF or IORSF file respective) can be generated via the SE Manager and transferred to the SVP hard disk. A running BS2000 system is not required for this.
The call at the SE Manager is made via the main page in the menu Devices => <server>(SE </390>) => <unit>(SU</390>) => IORSF-files.
Press "Generate and transfer IORSF file" to start the dialog.
The files containing the IOGEN instructions must first be transferred to the MU on which the SE Manager is running. The transfer takes place in dialog. The IOCF is generated at the MU and can be transferred directly to a selected level of the SVP hard disk of the SU /390. The files created for this purpose on the MU are deleted after the actions are completed. The log file can be copied to the local computer (see below).
Compared to the generation with the utility IOGEN in BS2000 system, the following changes occur:
- The two log files of IOGEN and IOCGEN are combined to one single log file. The operand PROT of the CPGOPT instruction is ignored. The generated log file can be downloaded to the local computer by the dialog when the generation has finished successfully.
- The generated IORSF file is written directly from the MU to the hard disk of the SVP. Downloading is not necessary and is not offered.
- The files with the instructions which have been uploaded from the local computer to the MU are stored there with their file name (but without path name) for generation.
- For file assignments via the IOGEN statement
SYSFILE SYSDTA = <fname>
<fname> must contain this filename.
- The file names are case sensitive.
- After generation the IOGEN output messages are displayed in a SEM dialog window.
- If the generation was not successful the dialog window shows the IOGEN error messages.
The exact procedure is described in the manual "Operation and Administration" [5] as well as in the online help of the SE Manager.
