Batch Mass Migration

Step 1: Preparation

Step 0 in the Mass Migration process is to make sure the mass migrate libraries are empty. If not, they first need to be emptied or re-created.

Before commencing with a mass migration, the group requesting the mass migration must move programs, data, JCL, load members, etc., into appropriate migrate libraries. Specifically,

Step 2: Initial Backups

Before the actual migration process, production libraries should be backed up.

Step 3: Create Panvalet Migration Commands

To do a mass migrate into PCP40, PCP41 and PCP42 Panvalet, any members which already exist must first be deleted. After a migrate is completed, members in PCP40 must have their statuses changed to PROD status. This step creates the necessary commands to accomplish a mass migration into PCP40, PCP41 and PCP42. Specifically:

Step 4: Panvalet Migration

The migration process will disable members in PCP40, PCP41 and PCP42 that are to be replaced. These members will then be removed from their respective Panvalet libraries. New modules are then migrated, and those members in PCP40 that were migrated then must have their statuses changed to PROD status. Specifically:

Step 5: Back Up Panvalet Libraries After Migration

Once the transfers are complete, the PCP40, PCP41 and PCP42 Panvalet libraries should be backed up. Specifically:

Step 6: Library Migrations

Library modules should now be migrated into the appropriate batch and online production libraries. Specifically:

Step 7: Production Library Backup

After load modules and SCT DB2 libraries have been migrated, the production libraries should be backed up. Specifically:

In Conclusion:

The above completes the mass migration of modules from ISP89 and ISP90 migrate datasets into appropriate production libraries. Library backups and Panvalet backups/purges have been defined generically. These items should already exist, and should be reused rather than reinvented. The Panvalet process used here will insure that members can be recovered from the Panvalet purge tape.
