You can obtain CA OPS/MVS in a compressed format (pax.Z file) that enables you to install directly from DASD. This is known as the Pax-enhanced ESD process.

To install CA OPS/MVS using the Pax-enhanced ESD process, you do the following:

  1. Follow the procedures in the Electronic Software Delivery Downloading and Unpackaging CA Products. This guide tells you how to download the product .pax.Z file and uncompress it into a number of CA OPS/MVS product distribution data sets on DASD.
  2. After the CA OPS/MVS product distribution data sets are available on your local DASD, continue with the product installation as instructed in the chapter "Installing the Product from Tape." It advises you where the DASD-based installation process differs from the tape-based installation process.
