Installing NATURAL Support Programs

Three model files with the jcl extension are supplied in the home/etc directory. You must modify these files and correct values supplied in all lines marked with <-- character, and install them.

• IWAYCICN. This file contains the job to be executed on the mainframe to install a proxy transaction and the supporting run-time programs, AASNATC and AASSUBC, in CICS. You can change the Proxy transaction name. The new name will be used in the NATPROXY parameter when connection to CICS NATURAL is configured.
• IWAYNATC. This file contains the job to be executed on the mainframe to install the supporting NATURAL program IWAYNATC in the ADABAS NATURAL file containing library SYSEXT. These programs are used in metadata processing. You can change the library and/or program names. However, you must change the names correspondingly in the natcdbs.acx file. If you choose a non-SYSEXT library, you must either place the SYSEXT library in the NATURAL profile steplib list or concatenate the new library with the SYSEXT library.
• IWAYIVPD. This file contains the job to be executed on the mainframe to install the sample NATURAL program IWAYIVPD and the local data areas. IWAYTSTI and IWAYTSTO define input and output buffers processed by the program. You can install these NATURAL objects in any NATURAL library. You can change the program name. However, renaming of data areas requires corresponding changes in the program IWAYIVPD source code. These object names are used to verify synonym creation.
