Installing the bootstrap package on z/OS



The bootstrap package is installed on USS and then certain components are transferred and installed on MVS.

Although most shells can be used with MainView Middleware Monitor, many of the script files are written for the Korn shell.

Make sure the Bootstrap package has been copied to USS using FTP with binary mode as described in Distributing the Agent and extensions via the launch page.

  1. In the command prompt, set your working directory to the directory where the agent installation resides (agents in suggested directory layout).
  2. Unzip the bootstrap package.
  3. Change to the bmmtm-agent/bin directory.
  4. Ensure the JAVA_HOME and MQS_HOME environment variables are set in the shell environment before running the MVMMConfiguration Agent.
  5. Start the Configuration Agent, enter: ./agent --start
  6. Change to agent directory.
  7. In order to transfer the files EAAXML, RECV.JCL and INSTALL.XMIT to MVS, use the following commands. They can be copied to a shell script or can be and executed separately. Below an example for a shell script

    #!/bin/sh -v
    # Customize YOURHLQ.Target_Dataset_Name according to the site standards
    export BMMDS=YOURHLQ.Target_Dataset_Name

    # EAAXML
    iconv -f ISO8859-1 -t IBM-1047 EAAXML > EAAXML.EBCDIC
    cp -v -F crnl -P "RECFM=FB,LRECL=1020,BLKSIZE=27540,space=(CYL,(50,50),norlse)" EAAXML.EBCDIC "//'$BMMDS.EAAXML'"


    # RECV.JCL
    iconv -f ISO8859-1 -t IBM-1047 RECV.JCL > RECV.JCL2
    cp -v -F crnl -P "RECFM=FB,LRECL=80,BLKSIZE=3120,space=(TRK,(1,1))" RECV.JCL2 "//'$BMMDS.RECV.JCL'"


    # INSTALL.XMIT - Uncomment the next line when installing the z/OS Agent for 31-bit addressing mode
    # cp -v -B -P "RECFM=FB,LRECL=80,BLKSIZE=3120,space=(CYL,(50,50),norlse)" INSTALL.XMIT "//'$BMMDS.INSTALL.XMIT'"


    # INSTALL.B64.XMIT - Uncomment the next line when installing the z/OS Agent for 64-bit addressing mode
    # cp -v -B -P "RECFM=FB,LRECL=80,BLKSIZE=3120,space=(CYL,(50,10),norlse)" INSTALL.B64.XMIT "//'$BMMDS.INSTALL.B64.XMIT'"
