Installing and starting components


You use the standard BMC Installation System to install and start BMC Subsystem Optimizer for zEnterprise (Subzero) components. The Installation System is an ISPF application that performs the following tasks:

  • Obtains the compressed base installation files from BMC, decompresses them, and installs them as the Subzero product load library on your z/OS system

    Note

    BMC neither supports nor recommends installing the installation of the Subzero product load library in partitioned data set extended (PDSE) data sets.

  • Collects information about your environment and the products that you select

    Using this information, the Installation System creates installation jobs that use IBM SMP/E facilities and conventions to establish FMIDs on your system.

  • Collects information for setting up product components

    Using this information, the Installation System creates jobs that define, start, and initialize required components.

  • Creates JCL to execute the Product Authorization utility, which installs CPU authorization passwords, also known as product license keys

For complete information about performing these tasks, see the following documents:

Once the DBC and its agents are running in your environment, you must perform the following tasks:

  • Grant the DBC authority to start and stop the DBC address spaces.
  • Define the address spaces as started tasks.

For information about setting up DBC and its agents to work with Subzero, view the Quick Course Subsystem Optimizer for zEnterprise - Setting up procs for execution.

You can now set up Subzero for redirection.
