Before you begin

Perform the procedures in the Preparing-for-installation topic.

To install the BMC AMI Datastream product files

  1. Open the INSTALL member for editing.
  2. Add your site-specific JOB card.
  3. Change the following references to your variable value:
    • AMIHLQ
    • AMISC
    • (Optional) AMIMC (depends on site requirements)
  4. Modify the file according to your SMS requirements:
    • If your site requires an SMS management class specification, uncomment the following JCL statements:
      •  All MGMTCLAS=&MCLASS.
      • SET MCLASS=
    • If you do not use SMS, modify the file as follows:
      • Change all references to AMIVS to your variable value.
      • Comment out the following JCL statements:
        • All STORCLAS=&SCLASS.
        • All MGMTCLAS=&MCLASS.
        • SET SCLASS=
        • SET MCLASS=
      • Uncomment the following JCL statements:
        • All VOL=SER=&VOLSER.
        • SET VOLSER=
  5. Run the customized job.

The job allocates and populates the following data sets:

  • amihlq.BMCPSWD
  • amihlq.SAMP
  • amihlq.DBRM
  • amihlq.EXEC
  • amihlq.LOAD
  • amihlq.PARM

Authorizing the BMC AMI Datastream runtime load library

You must authorize the BMC AMI Datastream runtime load library with the authorized program facility (APF).

To temporarily APF-authorize the runtime load library for testing

For testing purposes, use the SETPROG APF console command to authorize the library only until the next initial program load (IPL).

  1. Determine the volume on which the library resides by entering the following command in the ISPF:

    TSO LISTDS '<amihlq>.LOAD' 

    The amihlq variable is the high-level qualifier that you specified during installation.
    The last line of the output is the volume serial number of the disk on which the BMC AMI Datastream runtime load library resides.

  2. To clear the *** on your display, press Enter.
  3. In the SDSF, enter /+ and press Enter.
  4. In the pop-up page, enter the following data set name:

    SETPROG APF,ADD,DSN=<amihlq>.LOAD,VOL=<volumeSerialNumber> 

    The volumeSerialNumber variable is the volume serial number referred to earlier.

    Important

    Enter the data set name carefully because z/OS does not validate the data set name even if you receive a message confirming that z/OS has added the load library to the authorized library list.

  5. Press Enter.

To permanently APF-authorize the runtime load library

Add the BMC AMI Datastream runtime load library to the permanent authorized library list in SYS1.PARMLIB. Contact your system administrator or BMC Support for instructions.

Where to go from here

If you do not need to create an SMP/E environment for the 

BMC AMI Datastream for z/OS

product, you are ready to proceed to in the Customizing-after-installation section.

Otherwise, perform the procedure in the Running-the-SMP-E-installation-process.
