You must first be connected to a remote system.
To create a new sequential or partitioned data set in
an MVS™ subproject, follow these
steps:
- In the z/OS® Projects
view, navigate to the MVS subproject
in which you want to create the new data set.
- Select New > Allocate Sequential Data Set or New
> Allocate Partitioned Data Set. The
New Data Set window opens, prompting you for the data set name and
characteristics.
- To allocate the data set with default characteristics,
type the new data set name and click Finish. When you allocate data sets or create partitioned data set members
from within an MVS subproject,
the names are validated against z/OS naming
rules to avoid spending the time that would be necessary to process
allocation errors on z/OS.
(The same type of validation is done for actions you perform in the
Remote Systems view.) The new member name is displayed
in the window.
- To set specific data set characteristics, type a data set
name and click Next to advance to the next
wizard page. For help completing the fields in the New Data Set wizard,
click the help icon.
