Installing BAS temporary storage model definitions

A temporary storage model definition specifies the attributes of temporary storage queues with names that match the prefix in the model. When a TSMDEF is installed, a TSMODEL is created on the local system. When an EXEC CICS® WRITEQ TS command specifies a prefix that matches a TSMODEL prefix, a temporary storage queue is created, using the attributes of the TSMODEL. If the installed TSMODEL specifies a Remote system name, the queue is created on that remote system. However, the TSMDEF and the TSMODEL always exist locally. This rule applies whether the TSMDEF is installed using the INS command, or by resource assignment or resource group. If either a RASGNDEF or a RESGROUP is used to install the temporary storage model definition, the Usage parameter must always specify LOCAL (see Installing resource descriptions and Installing resource groups).

To install a temporary storage model into an active system, issue the INS command.

After installation of a TSMDEF resource definition, you can enquire about the resultant object using:
