Copy Options File Keywords

You can copy keyword values from a previous version of CA CSM for easier and quicker customization.

Note: This procedure only applies if you are upgrading from a previous version of CA CSM, and it is optional.

Follow these steps:

1. Go to the directory where the MSMSetup.sh setup utility resides.

   You can use one of the following methods to find the MSMPATH for the previous version:

   • The path that is specified in CA CSM Product Installed Path of the summary report for the previous version (MSMSummaryReport.txt) for CA CSM Product Installed Path
   • The path that is specified in the MSMPATH keyword in MSMSetup folder MSMSetupOptionsFile.properties options file for the previous version
2. Execute the utility.

   For example, use the following command to execute the utility from USS OMVS:

   sh MSMSetup.sh copyOPT PreviousRelease.MSMPATH
   

   PreviousRelease.MSMPATH

   Path where CA CSM target files for the previous version are located.

   Example: /u/users/msmserv/msm

   The utility looks for the previous version options file in the following location:

   PreviousRelease.MSMPATH/CEGPHFS/MSMSetupOptionsFile.properties.
   

   The utility copies all available values from the previous version options file to the current options file to fill in missing corresponding keywords.

When the utility finishes, the modified MSMSetupOptionsFile.properties options file appears in edit mode. You can customize it to conform to the requirements of your site.

Important! Review keyword values against the previous system version and user configuration settings in the previous version of CA CSM user interface. During migration, two keywords, MVSHFSDsnPrefix and MountPath, specified in the options file must be the same as in the previous version. All other system and user setting keywords can be modified during the migration.
