This is something we have been doing in CA Services since the Endevor 3.8 release. It involves a scan of Endevor inventory to build ACM information, instead of using Generate actions. It is very low risk, runs fast, and requires no changes to a processor. In fact it does not use a processor.
In one case, it was estimated that it would take weeks to Generate all the programs at a site to build ACM information. This process was tailored for the site and executed in less than 2 days.
1. Upload the .XMIT file as binary (FB80)
2. Receive the .XMIT file to create a PDS
3. Follow the instructions within the Notes document
If anyone prefers to work with a text file, see the .txt.zip attachment in an IEBUPDTE format, and ignore the .XMIT file.
The attachments were updated on 2019 04 23 to:
- Support the Endevor v18.12 release
- Allow the tools to be used for finding suspected unused input components (for example Copybooks).
