This topic describes how to create a new Rational Team Concert™ for System z® data set definition.
Before
you begin this task, you must create a Rational Team Concert for System z project area.
Restriction: Before you can create, modify, or delete a data
set definition, you must have permission to make these modifications.
Permissions can be managed from the Project Configuration node on
the Process Configuration tab in the Project Area editor.
You can create a new data set definition one of two ways:

definition. For information about valid data set names,
see z/OS data set naming rules in Rational Team Concert for System z.
Note: If the box next to Add
data set prefix from build definition to data set name is selected,
the prefix that you specified in the build definition will be added
to the data set name.
