Using CA LMP

CA LMP provides a standardized and automated approach to the tracking of licensed software. The CA LMP key certificate you received with your CA Auditor installation or maintenance tape (if applicable) contains the following information:

Product Name

The trademarked or registered name of CA Auditor licensed for the designated site and CPUs.

Product Code

A two‑character code that corresponds to CA Auditor.

Supplement

The reference number of your license for the particular CA Auditor, in the format nnnnnn ‑ nnn. This format differs slightly inside and outside North America, and in some cases, is not provided at all.

CPU ID

The code that identifies the specific CPU for which installation of your CA Auditor is valid.

Execution Key

An encrypted code CA LMP requires for CA Auditor initialization. During installation, it is referred to as the LMP code.

Expiration Date

The date (dd mmm yy as in 15 JAN 02) your license for CA Auditor expires.

Technical Contact

The name of the technical contact at your site, who is responsible for the installation and maintenance of the designated CA Auditor. This is the person to whom CA addresses all CA LMP correspondence.

MIS Director

The name of the Director of MIS or the person who performs that function at the site. If the certificate indicates the title, but not the individual’s name, you should supply the actual name when correcting and verifying the certificate.

CPU Location

The address of the building where the CPU is installed.

CA LMP is an integral part of CAIRIM (Resource Initialization Manager), another one of the CA Common Services. Once CAIRIM has been installed or maintained at service level C1/9901 or higher, CA LMP support is available for all CA LMP‑supported CA software solutions. If CAIRIM is not at the minimum service level, CA Auditor could abend with a S0C6 in LTDMRTJN.

You must add the CA LMP execution key, provided on the key certificate, to the CAIRIM parameters to ensure proper initialization of the CA software solution. To define a CA LMP execution key to the CAIRIM parameters, modify member KEYS in the OPTLIB data set.

The parameter structure for member KEYS is as follows:

PROD(pp) DATE(ddmmmyy) CPU(tttt-mmmm/ssssss) LMPCODE(kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk)
pp

Required. The two‑character product code. For any given CA LMP software solution, this code agrees with the product code the CAIRIM initialization parameters for earlier genlevels of CA Auditor use.

ddmmmyy

The CA LMP licensing agreement expiration date.

tttt‑mmmm

Required. The CPU type and model (for example: 2064-116) where CA Auditor is to run. If the CPU type or model require less than four characters, insert blank spaces for the unused characters.

ssssss

Required. The serial number of the CPU where the CA LMP software solution will run.

kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

Required. The execution key needed to run the CA LMP software solution. The key certificate shipped with each CA LMP software solution provides this CA LMP execution key.

Following is an example of a control statement for the CA LMP execution software parameter. Although this example uses CA Sort to represent the CA solution, this CA LMP execution key value is invalid and provided as an example only.

PROD(SL) DATE(01JAN04) CPU(2064-116 /370623) LMPCODE(52H2K06130Z7RZD6)

For a full description of the procedure for defining the CA LMP execution key to the CAIRIM parameters, see the CA Common Services for z/OS documentation.

CA Common Services for z/OS can cause CA Auditor to abend with a completion code of SCA0. If this occurs, consult your CA Common Services for z/OS documentation for information.
