z/VSE Installation

Steps to Follow

To install CA IDMS VSAM Transparency under z/VSEA, complete the following steps:

  1. Install the CA IDMS VSAM Transparency software into the CA IDMS/DB library by using the integrated installation procedures.

    These procedures are described in CA IDMS Installation and Maintenance Guide—z/VSE.

  2. Install the CA IDMS SVC as described in CA IDMS installation guide for your operating system.

    If using variable-length CA IDMS VSAM Transparency records, there are additional installation considerations. See Variable-Length Record Considerations for a list of these considerations.

  3. If you intend to reassemble ESVSSPVT without using the integrated installation procedures, assemble and link edit ESVSSPVT as SVA eligible.

    Sample JCL Link Edit ESVSSPVT (z/VSE)

    // DLBL   idmslib,'idms.lib'
    // EXTENT ,xxxxxx
    // LIBDEF SEARCH=idmslib.sublib,CATALOG=idmslib.sublib
    // OPTION CATAL
       PHASE ESVSSPVT,*,SVA
    // EXEC ASMA90
       ESVSSPVT SVC=nnn
       END

  1. Add the following phases to the System Directory List:

    You can add these phases in one of two ways:

  2. Include an ADD PROGRAM statement for ESVSAMBE in the system definition of all DC/UCF systems to be used with CA IDMS VSAM Transparency. Specify the ADD PROGRAM statement as follows:
    ADD PROGRAM ESVSAMBE
      LANGUAGE IS ASSEMBLER
      REENTRANT
      RESIDENT.
    

    Note: As part of the normal installation process for CA IDMS/VSAM Transparency, your system definition will be updated with the definition of all programs required for this product. If you need to add these definitions to another system, source module DLODEVSM in your installed library contains the definition of all the CA IDMS VSAM Transparency programs.

    More information:

    For more information on the ADD PROGRAM statement, refer to CA IDMS System Generation Guide.

  3. Make additions to the CA IDMS system for variable length records, as detailed in Variable-Length Record Considerations.
