Installation Sequence

To execute sample jobs, they must be executed in sequential order by name and number. Review, edit, execute, and complete each installation step before proceeding to the next step. Read the CA Common Services requirements before starting this process.

Follow these steps:

  1. SMP/E Installation Phase

    Perform the SMP/E jobs as outlined in the following list:

  2. CAIRIM Phase

    Install PC Calls on the LPAR before running either a new install or upgrade. (SVC and SUB System have been replaced with PC Calls.)

  3. Customization Phase

    Before performing either a new install or an upgrade, execute the members that have names that start with BDCUS. It is assumed that each INSTJCL only does a new installation or upgrade and not both within the same PDS.

  4. New Installation Phase

    Execute the members that have names starting with BDNEW if you are installing CA Datacom for the first time. After all BDNEW jobs have executed successfully, the new CA Datacom environment is ready for use.

  5. Upgrade Installation Phase

    Execute the members that have names starting with BDUPG if you are performing an upgrade installation. When the BDUPG jobs have executed successfully, the upgrade is complete and the new environment is ready for use.

  6. Post-Installation Phase

    Configure a MUF using the DBDATIN2 member as your MUF JOB or STC, because installation verification programs run against the customized MUF. Member MUFSTRTS can be used as a starting shell for this JCL.

    Do not use the preconfigured MUF once the upgrade process is complete. This MUF is customized to support the upgrade process only. It is not intended to be used for the permanent MUF Startup process for your site. See the following examples:

    Make any CA Datacom CICS Services modifications necessary for your specific site.

  7. Install Verification Phase

    Start your customized MUF for your site. Do not use any of the MUFs from the upgrade process, for example, MUFs from the fallback or fall forward part of the upgrade process. Use the MUFs configured for each of these processes. Do not use any of your internal configured MUFs.

    Once the upgrade process is complete, verify that the DBDATIN2 member is ready to be used for your site. Start your MUF and begin the installation verification programs against that MUF instance.

    Execute the members that have names that start with IVPNEW* or IVPUPG*. When the IVP* jobs have executed successfully, the CA Datacom Version 15.0 product installation is complete.
