Chapter 2 Customizing the Installation : Customizing the Century Range

Customizing the Century Range
Member USERMOD1 in the JCL data set contains JCL to modify the operands of the $SYSDATE macro in the MACRO data set. If a field has a data type of date semantic and the corresponding input field is defined as a two-digit year, the century value for the date is derived from the YYCENTURYRANGE operand in the $SYSDATE macro. TIBCO Object Service Broker has a default century value of 1980. If this value is acceptable, you can skip this step.
SMP/E conventions require that all components required by the installation (such as the TIBCO Object Service Broker base component, TIBCO Service Gateway for CICS, TIBCO Service Gateway for IMS TM, and so on) must be received and applied prior to applying USERMODs. If other components are to be installed, delay execution of this step until all other components have been applied.
 
The century range can be 0 or a value between 1900 and 2100. If the value is 0, TIBCO Object Service Broker uses the current century as returned by the TIM macro as the century value. For example, if the current date is 2000.01.01 or later, the century is 20.
If YYCENTURYRANGE is not 0 (for example, a valid value like 1940), and the input year is greater than or equal to the year portion of YYCENTURYRANGE, the century portion of YYCENTURYRANGE is used. If the input year is smaller than the year portion of YYCENTURYRANGE, the century portion of YYCENTURYRANGE+1 is used.
Changing the Default Century Range
 
It should end with RC=4. Return code 4 is expected because the linkedit warning messages that appear, IEW2651W, IEW2454W, and IEW2656W, are normal and can be ignored.
Changing the Default Century Range After Applying USERMOD1
 
It should end with RC=4. Return code 4 is expected because the linkedit warning messages that appear, IEW2651W, IEW2454W, and IEW2656W, are normal and can be ignored.
Apply USERMOD1 to All Data Object Brokers
 
Run USERMOD1 on each Data Object Broker you install to avoid date inconsistent century ranges.
It should end with RC=4. Return code 4 is expected because the linkedit warning messages that appear, IEW2651W, IEW2454W, and IEW2656W, are normal and can be ignored.
