Does CA-Telon support HALDB (partitioned DBDs)?
Support for IBM’s new IMS/ESA Partition Support Product, which (in IBM’s words) “blows the 4GB lid” off HDAM and HIDAM databases, has been added to the latest CA-Telon release, 4.0. It is now possible to import DBDs that include PART (partition) invocations using CA-Telon’s standard Database Import utility. Once imported, each PART is treated by CA-Telon as a DATASET. The code generated for DATASET data access works for PARTs as well. CA-Telon accepts all valid PART parameters (PARTL, DD1, DEVICE, MODEL, DD2, OVFLW, BLOCK, SIZE, RECORD, RECFM, SCAN, FRSPC, REL, ROOT, HIGHKEY), though it does not store or use PARTL, ROOT or HIGHKEY.
