Step 4. Access the Installation Software

You can choose to access the installation software using either:

  • Tape. The software is provided on a 3490 or 3590 cartridge.

    You must unload the installation data set from the tape before you can run the installation. This is how most installations are performed.

  • FTP. You download the installation software from the Information Builders download site.

    Downloading the installation software involves:

    1. Registering at the Information Builders download site.
    2. Downloading the installation data set from the site.
    3. Running the isetup procedure to complete the download process and install the software.

Unload the Installation Software From Tape

The software is provided on a cartridge in 3490 or 3590 format with MVS PDSs. Perform the following to unload the installation data set from the tape:

    Procedure
  1. Log on to TSO.
  2. Run an IEBCOPY job to allocate and unload the qualifier.HOME.DATA data set. This PDS contains the members needed for the actual installation.

    It is recommended that you use HOME.DATA as the low-level qualifier for the target data set. Although you can specify any low-level qualifier, HOME.DATA enables the installation procedure to generate default data set names, simplifying your installation.

    Note: If you do not use HOME.DATA, then change the following line to reflect the value you used.
    //SET  EDAUSSD='HOME.DATA'

    Do this before you run ISETUP.

    The following sample JCL is for the initial unload to a new data set:

    //IEBCOPY  EXEC PGM=IEBCOPY,REGION=0M

//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*

//SYSUT1   DD UNIT=workunit,SPACE=(CYL,(5,1))

//OUT1     DD DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE),

//         DSN=qualifier.HOME.DATA,

//         DCB=(RECFM=FB,LRECL=80,BLKSIZE=3200),

//         SPACE=(CYL,(5,5,25)),

//         UNIT=SYSDA

//IN1      DD DISP=(OLD,PASS),

//            DSN=HOME.DATA,

//            UNIT=cart,

//            VOL=(,RETAIN,,SER=volser),

//            LABEL=(1,SL)

//SYSPRINT  DD  SYSOUT=*

//SYSIN     DD  *

  COPY INDD=IN1,OUTDD=OUT1

    where:

    workunit

    Is the unit for the work data set.

    qualifier

    Is the high-level qualifier for HOME.DATA and for all other data sets that the installation procedure allocates. We recommend that the high-level qualifier reflect the release of the software. However, you can use any site-specific value.

    For PDS, we recommend retaining the low-level qualifier HOME.DATA, but you can change this to any site-specific value. If you use a low-level qualifier other than HOME.DATA, you must then edit member PDSSNAME to change the string “HOME.DATA” to the low-level qualifier you specify here.

    cart

    Is the unit type of the tape drive. Common names include 3490, TAPE, and 3590. Change as needed.

    volser

    Is the value shown on the media label.

    After this job has run, qualifier.HOME.DATA is allocated, cataloged, and populated with the members needed to continue the product installation.
