The DB2 ECCR runs as an MVS started task or as an MVS batch job. For the DB2 ECCR to start successfully, DB2 must be running.
Use this procedure to start the DB2 ECCR for the first time or to restart it after a system shutdown.
Configure the DB2 ECCR options:
Edit the REPDB2CT member in the PowerExchange RUNLIB data set as required.
Edit the REPDB2OP member in the PowerExchange RUNLIB data set as required.
The default member that PowerExchange supplies specifies WARM for the start type. The first time you start the DB2 ECCR, temporarily change the start type to COLD to allow the DB2 ECCR to start. After the initial start, warm start the DB2 ECCR.
Edit the ECCRDB2 sample JCL in the PowerExchange RUNLIB data set as required.
Execute the procedure in a batch job. Alternatively, start it as a started task by using the MVS START command. Generally, the DB2 ECCR is run as a started task because it is a long-running job.
The process described previously details the requirements for starting a single DB2 ECCR in a simple environment.
