Using the Online Installation Facility

The Online Installation Facility simplifies the task of building the JCL that unloads your products from the BMC AMI Capacity Management distribution tape. The Main Menu options are numbered 0 through 4 and are designed to be performed in that order. An Online Help Facility, accessed with the PF1 key, can assist you while you are using the Online Installation Facility panels.

The data set name for the Product Control File must have the following format:

hiqual.usermid.CONTROL

where hiqual and usermid are parameters that you assign.

The Product Control File is used by the Online Installation Facility. If you do not have a Product Control File, which resulted from a prior installation of the products, you need to create it. Refer to the Product Control Letter, which BMC sends to all customers. The Product Control Letter describes the contents of the Product Control File.

If you want to use a HRWRFIL other than the standard hardware file that was included on the tape, you must put it in a data set with the following name:

userid.userprf.HRWRFIL
