Rational Programming Patterns

Installing the server on z/OS

To install the Rational Programming Patterns V8.0.3 server on z/OS, you must apply the V8.0.3 PTF on the server already installed.

Procedure

  1. To obtain the files required to install the Rational Programming Patterns server on z/OS, you must:
    • Insert its installation disk into your DVD drive.
    • Or download its electronic image from the IBM® Passport Advantage Web site and extract all the compressed files. If you are an administrator, you can make them available on a shared drive.
    The contents of the installation disk and the extracted electronic image are the same:
    • A docs directory, with the relevant documentation.

      This directory contains the HAIE801.pdf Program Directory. It contains all the instructions to install the Rational Programming Patterns server on z/OS, through SMP/E.

    • A zos directory which contains:
      • a compressed file for the installation through SMP/E. This file contains the installable parts:
        • IBM.HAIE801.F1.BIN,
        • IBM.HAIE801.F2.BIN,
        • IBM.HAIE801.JCL.BIN
        • IBM.HAIE801.SMPMCS.
      • the V8.0.1.2 and V8.0.3 PTFs.
  2. If you install the server on z/OS for the first time, follow the instructions of the HAIE801.pdf Program Directory, located in the docs directory.
  3. Update the server by applying the V8.0.1.2 PTF (UK71657), if it has not already been done. Then apply the V8.0.3 PTF (UK73640).
    These fixes are shipped as files: IBM.HAIE801.UXXXXXX.
    Note: UXXXXXX is the fix number. In the steps listed below, you must replace it with its actual value.

    You must execute the following steps to install the fix:

    1. Allocate host data sets for the fix
      A sequential data set must be allocated on the z/OS system to receive the fix that you will upload from your workstation. You can do this by submitting the job below. Add a job card and modify the parameters to meet your site's requirements before submitting.
      //ALLOC    EXEC PGM=IEFBR14
      //*
      //UXXXXXX    DD DSN=hlq.IBM.HAIE801.UXXXXXX,
      //            DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE),
      //            DSORG=PS,
      //            RECFM=FB,
      //            LRECL=80,
      //            UNIT=SYSALLDA,
      //*            VOL=SER=volser,
      //*            BLKSIZE=6160,
      //            SPACE=(TRK,(103,20))
      //*
    2. Upload the fix from your workstation to z/OS
      Upload the file in binary format from your workstation to the z/OS data set. On a Windows® system, you can use FTP from a command prompt to upload the file. The table shows the commands entered by the user, and the values which are assumed:
      User enters: Values
      mvsaddr TCP/IP address of the z/OS system
      tsouid Your TSO user ID
      tsopw Your TSO password
      d: Your drive containing the fix files
      hlq High-level qualifier that you used for the data set that you allocated in the job above
      C:\>ftp mvsaddr
      Connected to mvsaddr.
      220-FTPD1 IBM FTP CS %version% at mvsaddr, %time% on %date%.
      220 Connection will close if idle for more than 60 minutes.
       
      User (mvsaddr:(none)): tsouid
      331 Send password please.
       
      Password: tsopw
      230 tsouid is logged on.  Working directory is "tsouid.".
       
      ftp> cd ..
      250 "" is the working directory name prefix.
       
      ftp> cd hlq
      250 "hlq." is the working directory name prefix.
       
      ftp> binary
      200 Representation type is Image
       
      ftp> put d:\IBM.HAIE801.UXXXXXX
      200 Port request OK.
      125 Storing data set hlq.IBM.HAIE801.UXXXXXX
      250 Transfer completed successfully
      5744800 bytes sent in 0.28 seconds
       
      ftp> quit
      221 Quit command received. Goodbye.
    3. Perform SMP/E RECEIVE and APPLY for the fix
    4. If you used the @pathPrefix@ setting during SMP/E installation, edit the file below to ensure the file URL points to the absolute path of the application rpp-update-sites:

      @confPath@/ccm/provision_profiles/rpp-profile.ini
