Enter or review information for data set groups.
Data Set Groups
Select a data set group to view or change its properties. Select one of the following groups:
  • Staging Data Sets
  • Backup Data Sets
  • Existing Load Libraries
HLQ
The high-level qualifier (HLQ) for the staging or backup data sets. Use as many qualifier levels as required.
Default value for the staging data sets is .V
version
STG, where the
version
variable is the version number of the new PowerExchange release.
For example, the HLQ for the staging data sets might be the following value:
PWX.V100STG
Default value for the backup data sets is .V
backup_version
, where the
backup_version
variable is the version number of the release that you are backing up.
For example, the HLQ for backup data sets might be the following value:
PWX.V961
Maximum length is 26 characters.
Depending on the data set group that you selected, this setting corresponds to one of the following variables in the INSTPARM file:
  • If you selected
    Staging Data Sets
    , this setting corresponds to the <libnameupgrade> variable.
  • If you selected
    Backup Data Sets
    , this setting corresponds to the <bkuphlq1> variable.
For existing load libraries, this field is read only.
Storage Class
SMS only. The SMS storage class for the data set group.
If you specify an SMS storage class, you do not need to specify any volume or unit values.
The SMS automatic class selection (ACS) routines in your installation might not allow specification of SMS classes or might override the values that you specify.
Depending on the data set group that you selected, this setting corresponds to one of the following variables in the INSTPARM file:
  • If you selected
    Staging Data Sets
    , this setting corresponds to the <smsscupgrade> variable.
  • If you selected
    Backup Data Sets
    , this setting corresponds to the <bkupsmssc> variable.
For existing load libraries, this field is read only.
Volume
The DASD volume serial number (VOLSER) on the
z/OS
system where you want to install the data sets.
Depending on the data set group that you selected, this setting corresponds to one of the following variables in the INSTPARM file:
  • If you selected
    Staging Data Sets
    , this setting corresponds to the <volupgrade> variable.
  • If you selected
    Backup Data Sets
    , this setting corresponds to the <bkupvol> and <bkupvolvsm> variables.
For existing load libraries, this field is read only.
Mgmt. Class
SMS only. The SMS management class for the data set group.
The SMS ACS routines in your installation might not allow you to specify SMS classes or might override the values that you specify.
Depending on the data set group that you selected, this setting corresponds to one of the following variables in the INSTPARM file:
  • If you selected
    Staging Data Sets
    , this setting corresponds to the <smsmcupgrade> variable.
  • If you selected
    Backup Data Sets
    , this setting corresponds to the <bkupsmsmc> variable.
For existing load libraries, this field is read only.
Unit
A generic or esoteric unit name on the
z/OS
system where you want to install the data sets.
Default is 3390, where applicable.
Depending on the data set group that you selected, this setting corresponds to one of the following variables in the INSTPARM file:
  • If you selected
    Staging Data Sets
    , this setting corresponds to the <unitupgrade> variable.
  • If you selected
    Backup Data Sets
    , this setting corresponds to the <bkupunit> variable.
For existing load libraries, this field is read only.
Data Class
SMS only. The SMS data class for the data set group.
The SMS ACS routines in your installation might not allow you to specify SMS classes or might override the values that you specify.
Depending on the data set group that you selected, this setting corresponds to one of the following variables in the INSTPARM file:
  • If you selected
    Staging Data Sets
    , this setting corresponds to the <smsdcupgrade> variable.
  • If you selected
    Backup Data Sets
    , this setting corresponds to the <bkupsmsdc> variable.
For existing load libraries, this field is read only.
