Install CAICCI-PC

The PC-to-mainframe client-server configuration requires CAICCI-PC on the participating PCs. This configuration supports 32-bit and 64-bit client applications.

Follow these steps:

  1. Remove any previous CAICCI-PC by using the CAINDREG program in the C:\CA_APPSW directory.
  2. Download the CCIPCS32 or CCIPCS64 file from the installation media or the FTP site. For information about downloading the installation files (CCIPCS32 and CCIPCS64), see the Installing topics.
  3. Run CCIPCS32.EXE or CCIPCS64.EXE.

    The InstallShield Wizard appears.

  4. Click Next, and follow the instructions.

    The wizard asks you to accept the CA License and the OpenSSL License and the Original SSLeay License. By default, the component is installed in the
    C:\Program Files\CA\SharedComponents\CAICCI-PC directory where CA products expect to find it. You can install into a different folder.

    Note: As the last installation step, if you want to configure CAICCI-PC, check the box to configure it now. Otherwise, click Finish to cancel the CAICCI-PC configuration. You can set the communications information and other options later by accessing the Configurator (CAICCI-PC Properties dialog) from the Start menu (Start>Programs>CA>CA CAICCI-PC>Launch CCIPC Configurator). However, if you cancel, your CA Technologies products cannot communicate with a host and will fail. Set the TCP/IP information and other options before running any CAICCI applications.
