Creating System

Each System has a life cycle spanning DEV3STEP and DEV2STEP. The two Environments are connected by a lifecycle Map. A System that is created in DEV3STEP and Must have a corresponding System in DEV2STEP, Preferable a main repository.

Creating SubSystem

SubSystems are used to separate the ELEMENTS into Logical Application Systems. Each of the Systems in DEV3STEP will have the SubSystems that are eligible to be worked on within the DEV3STEP System and migrated to the DEV2STEP System. The Code will not be seen by any other DEV3STEP System which does not have the SubSystem defined.

Create TYPES

Types are defined to separate the source code into Logical categories (i.e. COBOL, COPYBOOK, EZTPLUS, etc) TYPES must be defined in each of the Stages within the Systems lifecycle

Edit Type Information

The source code is stored using reverse deltaing and non-encrypted format. The default processor group is the most common processor group for this type. *noproc* should never be left as the default processor group. When no processor is needed the name of the TYPE should be used. The source and delta libraries should be specific for the PDM and stage.

Create Processor Groups

Edit Processor Groups with Processors

Edit Processor overrides

The Generate Processor in DEV2USER is the compile step or the assembly step. It must have all of the specific parameters for compile options and special libraries needed to compile and link the code. This will generate an object that will be migrated to the other stages in the life cycle

Create Approver Group

Approver Groups have the TSO IDs that are authorized to approve code to be migrated from one stage to another. The proposed method is to use RACF approver groups and raise the Quorum to 00002. This would eliminate having to maintain TSO IDs in ENDEVOR but would shift the maintenance to RACF.

Relate Approver Group

Each SubSystem can be defined with a separate approver group, throu the use of the Relate Function.

COOLGEN and ENDEVOR

COOLGEN is not maintained by ENDEVOR Source Management System. However, the process of moving the load modules, DBRM and Bindlib to PROD is done using ENDEVOR. There are 6 MOVE Processors especially designed to move COOLGEN to the Production Environment. They are:

COOL3WAY

COOLXXB

COOL2XB

COOLGEND

COOLGENB

COOL2XC

COOLWHOGIVESASHIT

ENDEVOR Notification to USERS

When a change is made to any part of the ENDEVOR system that will effect all of the users, a notification must be sent to all DHHS users at the following address: [email protected]

When a change is made to fix a problem reported by a user, or as a result to a change request for an enhancement. An email must be sent to the individual user and possibly the whole team using that System.
