Milestone 5: Create Configuration Environment

This milestone contains tasks for specifying configuration details for Code Pipeline. It should be performed for both new installations and upgrades so that the values specified are saved for future upgrades.

Important

Roles involved: Code Pipeline Installer

Task 5.1 Launch the Installation Configuration dialog

To launch the Installation Configuration, execute the $$SETUP EXEC provided in the SPWMINST data set.

On the Command line, type TSO EX followed by the fully-qualified library name and REXX EXEC member name.

Example

TSO EX '<hlq>.install.SPWMINST($$SETUP)

The initial Valid Environment Values screen (Specifying the Work Dataset) is displayed.

      Notes:                                                                  
      1 The Repository Dataset will be used to save and store                 
        information entered in the installation panels as well                
        as some generated samples and JCL.                                    
                                                                              
      2 The Repository Dataset may be used when applying                      
        maintenance to Code Pipeline at a future date.                                 
                                                                              
      3 The Repository Dataset may be used when upgrading to                  
        new releases of  Code Pipeline in the future.                                                               

Task 5.2 Specify the Code Pipeline Repository Dataset

The Validate Environment Values screen is used to specify the “Work” dataset. This is where all the JCL and customized members used throughout the installation and configuration of Code Pipeline will be stored.

  1. Type the name of the “Work” dataset in the Installation and Configuration Repository Dataset field and press Enter. Your value is saved, and the main menu for the Code Pipeline Guided Configuration dialog is displayed (Guided Configuration Dialog Main Menu).

Task 5.3 Specify Environment Values

  1. Type 1 (Create Configuration Environment) in the Option field and press Enter. The next Validate Environment Values screen is displayed.

  2. In the HLQ for Target and Distribution libraries field, specify the high-level qualifier used for your SMP/E data sets. (This corresponds to the variable TAPEHLQ in 17.02 installations.)

    Important

    If you are performing an upgrade, you can optionally enter the HLQ from your previous release in the Site High Level Qualifier field. To retain those existing datasets, be sure to skip Create SITE Datasets when you reach Milestone-10-Install-Base-Software.
