Abstract

PURPOSE:To easily use a working data set by previously storing the space capacity of a data set to be a reference correspondingly to the whole data sets, roughly setting up the space capacity of all the working data sets against a specified installation optional value and changing the rough space capacity at the time of conversational processing. CONSTITUTION:The initial value, increment and unit of a data set when a space option value is a reference unit are stored in a reference value table 1 correspondingly to a set name. A space option value (n) is inputted from a screen A and its corresponding space capacity (initial value or the like) is multiplied by (n) to set up the multiplied value. When necessary, the set value is displayed on the screen, changed and set up in substituted formats (B1, B2). At the time of batch processing, the value (n) is specified as an instruction parameter and the value obtained by multiplying the corresponding space capacity by (n) is set up as the space capacity of the working data set. Thereby, a beginner also can roughly set up the space capacity, and at the time of conversational processing, the set value can be displayed on the screen and changed by substituting, so that the data capacity can be set up in detail and can be easily used.

[Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a space amount control method for a work data set 1- that sets the space amount of a work data set.

[Prior Art and Problems to be Solved by the Invention] Conventionally, the system has set an arbitrary fixed value for the space amount of a working data set used by a software product. Therefore, if the amount of space set is too large, it means that space is wasted, and on the other hand, if there is insufficient space, an error will occur and it will be necessary to allocate it again, making the process complicated. there were. Furthermore, if you want to change the amount of space in the work data set, you have to change the installation option value in conversation processing, which is difficult to do and is not easy to use. Furthermore, in batch processing, it is necessary to replace each data set with a DD statement each time.
The problem was that it was difficult to use.

The present invention stores a standard data set space amount in advance for all data sets, and allows easy setting and communication of the space amount of all working data sets in accordance with specified installation option values. The purpose is to easily allow more detailed changes during processing.

[Means to solve problems]

Means for solving the problem will be explained with reference to FIG.

In Figure 1, the data set "Space standard value table 1" is created by associating the initial amount, incremental amount, space allocation unit, device name, etc. of the data set when the space option value is the basic unit with the data set name. This is a table to store.

Screen A is a screen for setting the space amount of the work data set, etc., and has an input area for inputting a space option value n.

Screen B1 and screen B2 are screens for displaying the initial value, increment, etc. of the set data set, and for making more detailed changes.

(Operation) As shown in FIG. 1, the present invention creates a data set space reference value table by associating the initial amount, increment amount, unit, etc. of a data set when the space option value is the basic unit with the data set name. 1 in advance, and screen A
In response to inputting a value from the space option value input area, the space amount (initial value,
Increment amount, unit, etc.) is multiplied by the input space option value as the space amount, and if necessary, display and overwrite the space amount of these set datasets. I am trying to set it accordingly. In addition, in response to specifying a space option value as a parameter of a command during batch processing, etc., the corresponding specification is applied to the initial value and incremental amount of the corresponding dataset name extracted from the dataset space amount standard value table 1. The amount multiplied by this value is set as the amount of space for the work dataset.

Therefore, the space amount of the standard dataset is stored in the dataset space standard value table 1 in advance in association with all datasets, and the installation option value specified on the screen or with the parameter of the command is set by referring to this table. Calculate and set the space amount of the working data set corresponding to , and display and modify (change) the set space amount on the screen as necessary during conversation processing to make detailed settings. This allows even beginners to easily and roughly set the amount of space for the work data set, and intermediate to advanced users can also display the set amount of space on the screen and overwrite it during conversation processing. You can make detailed settings by changing the settings.

〔Example〕
