Amen, not to disappoint you but if you are new to IMS, you should not be doing this work - however, have you contacted the IMS DBA at your shop, to start with? |

Thanks Anuj for your prompt response.
Actually i need to remove certain IMS databases from the system.So i was just thinking about what all things i should consider before i start working on this.
In short i need to do impact analysis of the above requirement.
For that I have shortlisted some of the pgms and PSB's which uses these databases. Can you please tell me if i am missing out on any other factor which needs to be considered while working on this.
Kind Regards,
Shweta |

As Anuj said, one important factor is, Did you contact your DBAs for doing this? cos, this process should have them involved. |

Utility "FABNRVRS" described in IBM IMS Library Integrity Utilities for z/OS
is a very handy tool to see all the links between DBD, PSB, PCB and ACB. |

Hello all!
Thanks for your reponse . Will be engaging DBA team for this.
Before going to them even i was required to do some initial impact analysis so that's why was confirming everything.
Regards,
Shweta. |
