Download and Unpack CA CSM Files

The packed CA CSM product package is available on the CA Support Online website. Before you install CA CSM, download and run the Prerequisite Validator utility.

Note: The Prerequisite Validator is also available on the CA Support Online website. You can separately download the Prerequisite Validator and the associated information.

After you have successfully run the Prerequisite Validator utility, you can go back to the CA Support Online website and download the full CA CSM package. Then, you are ready to install CA CSM.

Follow these steps:

  1. Go to the Download Center on the CA Support Online website.
  2. Enter CA Chorus Software Manager in the Select a Product field, select the latest version and the Select all components check box, and click Go.

    Note: If you cannot find CA Chorus Software Manager in the product list, follow the instructions from the Free Service area on the top of the product page.

    A list of product downloads is displayed.

  3. Download the software package.

After you download the software package, unpack and extract the files for installation.

Important! Verify that the unpacked CA CSM packages are stored on permanent storage volumes, and not on work or temporary volumes.

Follow these steps:

  1. Go to the directory where the CA CSM package is downloaded, and enter the following command to unpack the package:
    pax -rvf 51000068X01.pax.Z
    

    Note: The full pax file name, including the Z suffix, is case-sensitive. Verify that you use the exact case of the file name on the system where you issue the pax command. Rename the file, if necessary.

    The MSMInstaller directory is created, and the package is unpacked into the directory.

  2. Customize the UNZIPJCL file in the MSMInstaller directory to conform to the data set and USS directory naming standards at your site. Submit the job (for example, using the submit z/OS shell command in USS OMVS), and review the output for successful completion.

    The UNZIPJCL job creates the MSMSetup and the MSMProduct directories that contain the CA CSM installation files.

    The MSMSetup directory, the MSMProduct directory and the CA CSM Installation ISPF UI tool z/OS data set are created, and the CA CSM files are extracted.

    Note: When you open the UNZIPJCL file, a warning message can appear at the bottom of the screen. This message indicates that any trailing blanks are removed from the UNZIPJCL file. Removing or retaining trailing blanks does not affect job execution. You can ignore this message.
