Figure 9.  CICS-DBCTL IMS responses
|DFHDBFK - The CDBM  GROUP command
|file
| Before you can use the /GROUP command  CDBM requires a
| file in which all your predefined commands  can be stored.
| This file, DFHDBFK, is the CDBM GROUP  command file. It
| is a VSAM KSDS.
| The DFHDBFK file is not required until  you first attempt to
| use the /GROUP command.
| Sample JCL to enable you to define  this file and optionally  to
| place some of your group definitions within  it is provided in
| the 
CICS System Definition Guide
. The example given there
| also shows you how to batch load  this file if you  want to do
| so.
| You may load many definitions in this  way, or load none.  You
| may use whatever means you prefer to  define this file and
| and to maintain its content. One method  of maintainting the
| content once the file is defined is  provided by CDBM which
| offers a Maintenance function for the DFHDBFK  file.
| To use the the /GROUP command functions  of the CDBM
| transaction, add the data set name of  the group command
| file to the definition of the DFHDBFK  file within the
| DFHDBCTL group. For information about how to  do this, see
| the 
CICS Resource Definition Guide
 manual.
|Record layout in the  CDBM GROUP
|command file
| Each record in the DFHDBFK file may  be up to 1428
| characters long, as follows:
|The MAINTENANCE panel for  DFHDBFK
| If you press the Maintenance key (PF2)  on the main CDBM
| panel, you get the panel shown in  Figure 10 on page 17.
|field|length|content|description
|1|12|Group|a 12-character field containing
|your chosen name for this  group.
|The acceptable characters are
|A-Z 0-9 $ @ and  #. Leading or
|embedded blanks are not
|allowed, but trailing blanks are
|acceptable.
|2|10|IMS
|Command
|a 10-character field containing
|any of the IMS command  verbs
|that are valid for CDBM  (see the
|
CICS IMS Database Control
|
Guide
 for details). Leading or
|embedded blanks are not
|allowed, but trailing blanks are
|acceptable.
|Note:   The validity of the IMS
|command verb is not
|checked by CDBM.
|Invalid values will be
|reported by IMS when
|the command is
|attempted.
|3|1406|IMS
|Command
|parameters
|Up to 1406 characters of
|parameters appropriate to the
|chosen IMS command verb.
|(This will often consist of  lists of
|databases.)
|Note:   Wildcard characters may
|not be used in the
|parameters stored in the
|CDBM Group command
|file. This is unlike the
|other functions of the
|CDBM transaction which
|permit the use of
|wildcard characters to
|describe multiple similarly
|named databases.
