PDU Enhancements

TPFUG_Req_Number: D08006F
ORIGIN DATE: June 25th, 2008
REQUIREMENT ABSTRACT : PDU Enhancements.



REQUIREMENT DESCRIPTION :
• PDU Create Exclude process should be able support the NOSWITCH logic. This would enable the user to execute ZRPDU creations numerous times to reduce or eliminate Online multiple releases from a PDU. ZRDPU CREATE EXC NOSWITCH SSSS DDDD P
SSSS = Start time
DDDD = Duration of exclusion
P = Processor(s)/ALL

• PDU Create exclusion process (ZRPDU CREATE EXC) should support exclusion by pool types(s) (SDP, LDP, 4DP, or 4D6) in conjunction with the time frame and processor(s) parameters as defined above. This provides the user with the ability to target a single pool type, verses excluding all releases during the excluded time frame.

• ZRPDU ABORT (BP) processing must retain or preserve the original FC33 record structures in its entirety to support normal PDU processing activity in the event that the PDU is aborted.
