How to Install the CA Mainframe Connector for Linux on System z › Start the CA Mainframe Connector for Linux on System z › Set Up a z/OS Region › Prepare the z/OS Region Started Task

Prepare the z/OS Region Started Task

The Install Utility generates a started task member for each region you set up. Review it to verify that it meets your site-specific requirements. You can then copy it to a procedure library with the required authority.

Note: To help you plan any future deployment, you can update the started task member to use z/OS static system symbols.

Follow these steps:

1. Review and update the DD statements in the region started task member dsnpref.CNTL(rname) for your site-specific requirements.
2. Copy the reviewed member to SYSx.PROCLIB.
3. Grant the user ID associated with the region UPDATE authority on the run-time data sets created by the installation and setup processes.

Load Libraries

Most of the products have their own load library but also require the load libraries of supporting services. The following load libraries must be APF-authorized:

• CC2DLOAD

Important! Ensure that you have added the CC2DLOAD load library to the region STEPLIB, not the system linklist.

Authorization of the Load Libraries

To APF-authorize your load libraries, add the run-time load libraries to the APF list, SYS1.PARMLIB(IEAAPFxx).

To dynamically APF-authorize the load libraries, issue the following z/OS command:

SETPROG APF,ADD,DSNAME=&loadlib,VOLUME=&volser

&loadlib

Specifies the name of the load library.

&volser

Specifies its volume serial number.

To dynamically APF-authorize load libraries that Storage Management Subsystem (SMS) controls, issue the following z/OS command:

SETPROG APF,ADD,DSNAME=&loadlib,SMS
