Using the Report Migration Tasks panel you can compare report types,
reports, check for inheritance of new information and criteria, and
merge report types. You might use these migration tasks as you migrate
to a new release of z/OS or after maintenance has been installed that
enhances or corrects the distributed report types and reports.
Note: To avoid loss of existing customized reports or report types in your
user library, consider allocating and using an alternative data set
for the user library when performing the migration tasks.
When
you compare report types, DFSMSrmm checks the report type level between
the source and compare report types and report definitions. Only those
report types which are common to the source and compare libraries
are compared. DFSMSrmm compares report type level, library and macro
names, description, RDW setting, input data set name, help information,
and field data types. You can select the report type information which
should be copied from source to target library, and then select the
report types and definitions to be processed. The updated report types
are stored on the User library.
To perform one of the report migration tasks, follow this procedure:
- Type R on the DFSMSrmm Command Menu to select the Report option.
Press the ENTER key.
- Select the MIGRATION option on the DFSMSrmm Report Generator panel
as shown in Figure 1. Press the ENTER
key.
