Running the INSTALL procedure


Before you begin

Perform the tasks in Preparing-for-installation to obtain the installation package and unload the data set.

Make sure that you run the installation job under a user ID that has the authority to create the z/OS data sets. For more information, see Roles-and-permissions.

To run the INSTALL procedure

To generate the job control that builds the SMP/E environment and installs the product, you run the INSTALL procedure in the installation data set unloaded by the TSO RECEIVE.

  1. From the ISPF command shell, run the INSTALL command.
    The following example continues the process after unloading the installation data set that you defined in Preparing-for-installation:

    ex 'BMC.fileName.INSTALL(install)'

    Tip

    If you are already in the data set, edit member mode (3.4), you can open the installation panel by typing the EX command to the left of the INSTALL member name.

    The BMC AMI Security installation panel opens:

    -------------------------- RSS Software Installation -------------------------
    Command ===> __________________________________________________________________  

    HLQ for runtime datasets   : <hlq>________________________                   
    HLQ for install datasets   : <hlq>.SMPE___________________
    HLQ for L/E     datasets   : CEE__________________________  

    Unit for runtime datasets  : SYSDA___   Volume: ______  (Leave blank for SMS)  
    Unit for SMP datasets      : SYSDA___   Volume: ______  (Leave blank for SMS)

    Jobcard for install jobs:                                                   
    //<xxxxxx> JOB(),CLASS=A,MSGCLASS=X,REGION=0M,NOTIFY=&SYSUID__                




    Press Enter to generate installation JCL.  
    Press PF3 to terminate   
  2. Change the default values to reflect your installation naming conventions and standards:
    • High-level qualifier: Prefix qualifiers that are added to RSS data sets
      For example, if you replace <hlq> with PROD.RSSV230, you will have PROD.RSSV230.RSSLOAD.
    • Unit (the default is SYSDA)
    • Volume (the default is SMS)
  3. Change the default job card, as required, for the generated job control and press Enter.
    The $INSTALL JCL member is built, and you are in an ISPF edit session.
  4. Review the $INSTALL JCL member and make any changes or deletions required before submission. The following image shows the start of the deck:
    jcl deck install_01.png

    Important

    The following changes are required in the $INSTALL JCL member:

    • Under the SMP/E Dataset Allocation block, for the RSSADOCS data set DD statement, change the space value to SPACE=(TRK,(800,100,155)).
    • Under Runtime Dataset Allocation block, for the RSSDOCS data set DD statement, change the space value to SPACE=(TRK,(800,100,155)).

    After modifying the contents for your environment, you can save the job for later submission or submit it immediately.

During the installation process, all job steps end with return code 0. If you see a return code other than 0 that you cannot resolve, contact BMC Support and have the output from the installation process available.

Data sets on your system after running the installation process

After you run the installation process, the following runtime data sets are created on your system.
