Running the CPYAUDIT Job

If you are upgrading from Platform Server version 6.2, 6.4, 6.5, or 6.5.1 and want to continue to use your existing AUDIT file with the Platform Server for z/OS, then run the CPYAUDIT job which is provided in the Platform Server JCL dataset.

This CPYAUDIT JCL converts the variable length audit records to fixed length records, reads the variable length VSAM audit file and create a sequential fixed length backup file. This backup file is then used as an input file when you define the audit VSAM dataset using the DEFAUDIT JCL. For more information, see Defining the Audit VSAM dataset.
