D.1 Initializing PSP Online for the First Time

First-time initialization automatically requests information
about the CA MICS PSP data set names (PSP option 3.1). It
also requests default values for each option listed on the
PSP Options menu (PSP option 0).

First-time initialization also automatically runs the Receive
New PSP Tables dialog (PSP option 4.1) listed on the PSP
Utility menu.  After PSP has guided you through these panels,
you are placed at the PSP Online main menu.

To invoke PSP Online for the first time, follow the steps
below, depending on whether MWF has been initialized.

If the CA MICS Workstation Facility has not been initialized:

   1.  Establish the CA MICS ISPF environment by following
       the instructions in the PIOM, Section 3.3.6.

   2.  Activate the CA MICS Workstation Facility (MWF) by
       executing the CLIST or TSO LOGON PROC you coded for
       MWF.

   3.  Specify the MWF parameters as the MWF initialization
       panels are presented.  Use the HELP command on each
       panel for information about the parameters on the
       panel.  This dialog is also documented in the PIOM,
       Section 4.4.1.

   4.  Follow the instructions for sites that have
       initialized the CA MICS Workstation Facility.

If the CA MICS Workstation Facility has been initialized:

   1.  Select the CA MICS Administrator Facility (MAF) option
       from the MWF menu.  From CA MICS Administrator
       Facility menu, select the Product Support Program
      (PSP) option.

   2.  Specify the initialization options as panels are
       displayed.  Use the HELP command on each panel for
       information about the initialization parameters on
       each panel.

   3.  Allow the initialization dialogs to complete before
       signing off.  This step may run for a long time the
       first time you use PSP Online.  The duration varies
       with CPU and the number of CA MICS products installed.
