Step 9 tells you to test the generated modules with CA ACF2 for z/VM intercepts and save CMS. It also tells you to move the CA ACF2 for z/VM generated CP and CMS to first level, IPL and perform the final installation tasks. You must complete the following tasks before the installation of CA ACF2 for z/VM is complete. If you are installing CMS file protection, test the generated modules and save CMS. A. Test the FORMAT, GLOBAL, NUCXDROP, and RESERVE commands. B. If you see no problems, save the newly generated CMS system. Do the following to save CMS: 1. Issue the DEFINE STORAGE command if necessary to define storage large enough to IPL the 190 disk. 2. Issue the DEFSYS command (or SAMPNSS or equivalent) to define the NSS file for CMS. 3. Issue the command: "IPL 190 PARM SAVESYS CMS" C. IPL the newly‑saved CMS (eg."IPL CMS") and test. D. If you see no problem, then migrate to first level. To migrate to the first level: A. Move your CA ACF2 for z/VM generated system to first level. B. IPL the VM operating system, using the CA ACF2 for z/VM protected CP and CMS systems generated above. CA ACF2 for z/VM is now installed and active. C. The security administrator or the VM systems programmer should logon, using the default CA ACF2 for z/VM logonid of MAINT. D. Create any CMS userIDs missing from the Logonid database. E. Compile and store access rules to avoid excessive loggings. F. Install optional CA ACF2 for z/VM support as appropriate to your site. This may include user exits, and other product support. Refer to the "CA ACF2 for z/VM Security for VM Installation Guide" for more details. This is the last initial installation step. You can reply "COMPLETE" now if you intend to perform the above steps. CA ACF2 for z/VM will assume this step was done and do final cleanups. You may also reply "END" or "EXIT". When you finish the above steps, issue the "ACF2TASK RESTART" command and restart with this step (step 9). Then reply "COMPLETE" to this step prompt. Valid replies and their meanings are: "GO" (or a null line) to continue with the installation. "COMPLETE" indicates you have completed all of the required functions this step performs. CA ACF2 for z/VM assumes that you have completed everything properly and continues to the next step. "HELP" displays information on using this exec and valid replies for all prompts. Wait for a repeat of the prompt, then enter your reply.

If you respond with COMPLETE, you see the following information:
