Usage notes

CCAGRP is a Model 204 file that contains the definitions of the permanent file groups that the system manager has created with the CREATE command.

The CCAGRP file must be created in a batch run before the first permanent group is created. The User 0 stream must contain a LOGIN command with system manager privileges. The Model 204 System Manager's Guide describes the JCL required in this run, and discusses the parameters that must be set when issuing a CREATEG command. The same manual also contains a complete discussion of using and backing up the CCAGRP file.

When it processes CREATEG, Model 204 ends any current User Language update unit and begins a non-backoutable update unit. If a Model 204 command non-backoutable update unit is in progress, CREATEG is included in that update unit. For more information about Model 204 update units, see the Model 204 File Manager's Guide.
