How You Deploy CA Mainframe Connector

After you install the product, you deploy the z/OS regions to the target systems. The process includes the following stages:

  1. Configure your regions using the Install Utility. The following command starts the utility:
    EXEC 'dsnpref.CC2DJCL(INSTALL)'
    

    During this stage, the utility generates a series of jobs in the dsnpref.CNTL data set, including the following jobs that help with deployment: Si90DUMP and Si91REST.

    i

    Is an ID that differentiates the regions you configure.

  2. For each region you configure, submit the Si90DUMP job. The job creates the following backup data set that includes the configuration files for the region: dsnpref.DFDSS.SHARED (containing files that multiple regions can share).
  3. Deploy each region to the target system using CA CSM. Include the data set created in Step 2 and the dsnpref.CNTL data set as custom data sets.
  4. For each region you deploy, submit the Si91REST job on the target system. The job restores the region files in the backup data sets.
