Add Product Set to System

Use the "Add Product Set to System" panel to add a product set to a system.

Before you can set up a service on a system, you must add a product set that contains the service to the system. This associates the product set with the system's active system profile and, thus, makes the services it contains available for the setup tasks. Adding a product set to a system only affects the system's active system profile. If you want to set up the services for another system profile of the same system, you must first make that system profile the active system profile of the system and then add the product set again.

To see which system profile is the active system profile go to the "System Profiles" panel of the System property sheet.

Before you begin:

After you have successfully added a product set to msys for Setup you are prompted to add the product set to systems. This panel is displayed if you choose to do so. The following steps explain how you can access the panel at any time from the product set property sheet.

Steps for adding a product set to a system:

  1. Open the property sheet for the product set for which you want to view or change information (see Viewing and changing product set information).
  2. Click the "Added to systems" tab.
  3. Click Add to system. The "Add Product Set to System" panel is displayed.
  4. In the Eligible systems field, select the system or systems you want to add the product set to. See Eligible systems for details.
    Note:
    Be sure to only add the product set to systems that it has been installed on. Installing is done outside msys for Setup. If you add a product set to a system that it has not been installed on, msys for Setup might not detect the mismatch, but all attempts to set up the services in it for this system will fail.

  5. Click Add >. The selected system or systems are moved from the Eligible systems field to the Selected systems field.
  6. Click OK. The product set is added to each system in the Selected systems field.
Note:
Product sets can also be added to a system by sysplex and system administrators (see Managing sysplexes and systems).
