Running the Migration Planning Tool in Batch Mode
Part of the MPT product is a job stream file, MPTJOB.MPT.TELESUP, that
you can use to create the MPTDB database and generate the installed
products report as well as report levels 1, 2, 3, and 6 of migration
planning reports for all files located on the system being analyzed.
Customizing the MPTJOB Job Stream File
If you want to customize the reports produced by MPTJOB, you have to
modify the program using a text editor. Locate the :RUN command
associated with MPTREPT and modify the line according to the options
described in "Generating Migration Planning Reports".
You should also modify the appropriate !JOB command lines to add required
passwords.
You can equate the formal designator MPTOPTNS to a parameter file of your
own choosing, rather than the default file MPTOPTNS.MPT.TELESUP provided
with the product. Find the appropriate file equation in the MPTJOB file
and modify it as described in "Defining User Migration Options".
Streaming MPTJOB
It is best if you stream the MPT job after all other users have left the
system. MPTJOB will purge any existing MPTDB databases before it creates
a new database. During the job the system will be extremely busy and
disk files should not be accessed so they can be analyzed. This job
lasts from 30 minutes to more than eight hours, depending on the number
and types of disk files on your system.
You initiate the MPT job stream file by entering the following:
:STREAM MPTJOB.MPT.TELESUP
NOTE The job stream attempts to log on as MANAGER.SYS because the MPT
program requires SM capability in order to scan all files on the
system.
Progress reports will be sent to the console during the job execution.
