Appendix A. Special CA MICS Processing › A.4 Special Database Installation Checklist
A.4 Special Database Installation Checklist
Installing a special database unit differs from installing a
regular database unit in the following ways:
- JCLGENF is executed to generate the special database
installation jobs.
- JCLGENG is executed to generate the special database
operational jobs.
- The SELFILES parameter member and the SELFILES job are
used in place of the CYCLEGEN job.
- The EXECDEF parameter member is used to specify the
special database execution options as well as the usual
dynamic execution options.
If you plan to install a special database unit, we recommend
that you contact CA Technical Support to discuss your plans
and to review the differences between installation of a
special database and other installation procedures.
__ 1. Define Catalog Index Prefixes/Tapeprefixes
Define the catalog index for the prefix and the
tapeprefix.
No action is required if the high-level node name
has already been defined as an alias in the master
catalog.
+---------------------------------------------------+
| Reference(s): Section 3.5.1 |
+---------------------------------------------------+
__ 2. (OPTIONAL) Worksheet Preparation
Complete the set of Installation Preparation
Worksheets for the database unit being defined.
+---------------------------------------------------+
| Reference(s): Section 2.3, all subsections |
| Chapter 7, ccc Analyzer Guide(s) |
+---------------------------------------------------+
__ 3. Execute COPYLIBS
Build the database unit libraries.
__ Edit sharedprefix.MICS.CNTL(COPYLIBS) and fill in
the parameters on the EXEC statement. DO NOT enter
parameter values on the PROC statement.
__ Submit the following job:
'sharedprefix.MICS.CNTL(COPYLIBS)'
+---------------------------------------------------+
| Reference(s): Section 3.5.2 |
+---------------------------------------------------+
__ 4. Define JCL Parameters
Define all of the members in the prefix.MICS.PARMS
library that are required by JCLGEN:
prefix.MICS.PARMS(JCLDEF)
prefix.MICS.PARMS(USERJCL)
prefix.MICS.PARMS(INPUTRDR or INPUTccc) if an SMF
source component will be installed in this database
unit
prefix.MICS.PARMS(JCLNAMES) if the default PROC or
data set names should not be used for this unit
+---------------------------------------------------+
| Reference(s): Section 2.3.3.2.1 (JCLDEF) |
| Section 2.3.3.2.2 (USERJCL) |
| Section 2.3.3.2.3 (INPUTRDR) |
| Section 2.3.3.3.2.3 (JCLNAMES) |
| Chapter 7, ccc Analyzer Guide(s) |
+---------------------------------------------------+
__ 5. Verify JCL and CLIST Attributes
Verify the JCL and CLIST attributes for each CA MICS
product by reviewing
sharedprefix.MICS.PARMS(JCL$Iccc), where ccc is the
three character component identifier. If changes are
required, make the changes in
prefix.MICS.PARMS(JCLINFO).
+---------------------------------------------------+
| Reference(s): Section 2.3.3.3.2.2 (JCLINFO) |
+---------------------------------------------------+
__ 6. Execute JCLGENA
Generate the CA MICS Unit Installation Jobs.
__ Edit prefix.MICS.CNTL(JCLGENA) and fill in the
parameters on the EXEC statement and the data set
name (DSN=) parameter on the //ULOCKIT DD
statement.
__ Submit the following job:
'prefix.MICS.CNTL(JCLGENA)'
+---------------------------------------------------+
| Reference(s): Section 3.5.3.2 |
+---------------------------------------------------+
__ 7. Examine CNTL Members
Check the JCL generated by JCLGENA by examining
the following members in prefix.MICS.CNTL:
PROCJOB2 MICSNDB MICSDU
If the JCL and JES parameters do not meet your
installation's standards, update the
prefix.MICS.PARMS members JCLDEF or USERJCL and
resubmit JCLGENA.
+---------------------------------------------------+
| Reference(s): Section 3.3.3 |
+---------------------------------------------------+
__ 8. Execute PROCJOB2
Move the first group of CA MICS cataloged JCL
procedures to the production PROC library by
submitting the following job:
'prefix.MICS.CNTL(PROCJOB2)'
+---------------------------------------------------+
| Reference(s): Section 3.5.4 |
+---------------------------------------------------+
__ 9. Execute COPYLIBU
Move the CA MICS parameter library members that are
dependent on the products installed in this database
unit. Submit the following job:
'prefix.MICS.CNTL(COPYLIBU)'
+---------------------------------------------------+
| Reference(s): Section 3.5.2.2 |
+---------------------------------------------------+
__ 10. Execute JCLGENF
Generate the special database installation jobs. For
background execution, submit the following job:
'prefix.MICS.CNTL(JCLGENF)'
__ 11. Define PARMS Members
Define the required PARMS members.
__ CA MICS base platform (BAS):
'prefix.MICS.PARMS(SYSID)'
'prefix.MICS.PARMS(ZONE)'
'prefix.MICS.PARMS(SITE)'
Update the members in prefix.MICS.PARMS for the

* *
* (2) If DAYSMF OFF is specified in *
* prefix.MICS.PARMS(JCLDEF) you must *

* *
* FDAs may or may not use SMF data as an input *
* source. *
* *
* CA MICS does NOT provide an automated interface *
* to CA SMF Director from within an FDA. This *
* means that CA MICS will NOT be able to read the *
* CA SMF Director duplicate split index and obtain *
* the necessary input files. However, any SMF data*
* sets output from CA SMF Director may still be *
* directly input as standard SMF data. *

library member. Review and modify the COMPRESS
contents.
+---------------------------------------------------+
| Reference(s): Section 2.3.2.6 |
+---------------------------------------------------+
__ 13. Execute SELFILES
Prepare the input for SELFILES.
__ Edit prefix.MICS.PARMS(SELFILES) and modify as
necessary for file tailoring.
If the SELFILES member is empty or does not exist,
copy the contents of prefix.MICS.PARMS(DBMODEL) as
a starting point.
__ Tailor the FILE statements of the SELFILES member
according to both the instructions in section A.2
and your requirements.
Note that the contents of DATABASE, SYSID, and DATA
statements and comments in the SELFILES member will
be ignored in subsequent processing.
__ After the file tailoring, edit and submit the
SELFILES job:
'prefix.MICS.CNTL(SELFILES)'
Be sure that the characteristics for all products that
you are installing have been defined in the SELFILES
parameters member.

Submit the following job:
'prefix.MICS.CNTL(UNITGEN)'
Ensure that there are no error messages in MICSLOG or
SYSTSPRT and that the MICSLOG contains the normal
termination messages, BAS10999I or BAS11999I.
If the UNITGEN NOAUTOSUBMIT, or UNITGEN AUTOSUBMIT and
NOOPJCL parameters have been specified, UNITGEN will
complete with a normal return code of 4. Otherwise,
UNITGEN and UNITGEN1 should complete with a return
code of 0.
__ 16. (CONDITIONAL) Execute UNITGEN1
Perform this step only if your installation has
specified
UNITGEN NOAUTOSUBMIT
You must manually submit the UNITGEN1 job to perform
the required JCL and parameter generations.
After the UNITGEN job from the previous step
completes successfully, submit the following job:
'prefix.MICS.CNTL(UNITGEN1)'
__ 17. Verify UNITGEN1 Results
Verify that the UNITGEN1 job executed successfully.
The UNITGEN1 job contains multiple steps that perform
COPYLIBU, CYCLEGEN, JCLGEN, cccPGEN, and GDGSGEN
processing or part of it.
Ensure that there are no error messages in MICSLOG or
SYSTSPRT and that the MICSLOG contains the normal
termination messages, BAS10999I or BAS11999I.
All steps should complete with a return code of zero.
If errors are encountered during UNITGEN1 job
execution, correct the errors and rerun UNITGEN and
UNITGEN1 jobs respectively.
