zwe init vsam [parameter [parameter]...]

Description#

This command will run ZWECSVSM jcl to create VSAM data set for Zowe APIML Caching Service.

These Zowe YAML configurations showing with sample values are used:

zowe:  setup:    dataset:      prefix: IBMUSER.ZWE      jcllib: IBMUSER.ZWE.CUST.JCLLIB    vsam:      mode: NONRLS      volume: VOL123      storageClass:components:  caching-service:    storage:      mode: VSAM      vsam:        name: IBMUSER.ZWE.CUST.CACHE2
  • zowe.setup.dataset.prefix shows where the SZWESAMP data set is installed,
  • zowe.setup.dataset.jcllib is the custom JCL library. Zowe will create customized ZWESECUR JCL here before applying it.
  • zowe.setup.vsam.mode indicates whether the VSAM will utilize Record Level Sharing (RLS) services or not. Valid value is RLS or NONRLS.
  • zowe.setup.vsam.volume indicates the name of volume. This field is required if VSAM mode is NONRLS.
  • zowe.setup.vsam.storageClass indicates the name of RLS storage class. This field is required if VSAM mode is RLS.
  • components.caching-service.storage.mode indicates what storage Zowe Caching Service will use. Only if this value is VSAM, this command will try to create VSAM data set.
  • components.caching-service.storage.vsam.name defines the VSAM data set name.
