Installation

Use CA MSM to acquire, install, and maintain your product.

Business Value:

CA MSM provides a web interface, which works with ESD and standardized installation, to provide a common way to manage CA mainframe products. You can use it to download and install CA NetMaster NM for TCP/IP.

CA MSM lets you download product and maintenance releases over the Internet directly to your system from the CA Support website. After you use CA MSM to download your product or maintenance, you use the same interface to install the downloaded software packages using SMP/E.

Additional Considerations:

After you install the product, use the product's Install Utility to set it up. CA MSM can continue to help you maintain your product.

Note: If there is maintenance for VSAM data sets, you must use the Install Utility to update those data sets for each region you have set up.

More Information:

For more information about CA MSM, see the CA Mainframe Software Manager Product Guide. For more information about product setup, see the Installation Guide.
