Populate the SMP/E Data Sets

To populate the CA OPS/MVS SMP/E data sets

For tape installations

  1. Customize the job in the prefix.OPS.SAMPJCL(INSTSMP2)

    The INSTSMP2 job uses the data sets created by the INSTSMP1 job to perform the SMP/E RECEIVE, APPLY, and ACCEPT from a product tape cartridge.

  2. Change the job card to meet installation standards.
  3. Change the JCL variables for the tape unit and volume name.
  4. Change the SMPEPFX JCL variable to match the SMP/E data set prefix used in INSTSMP1
  5. Submit the job.

    The data sets created in Step 3 are populated with the correct installation settings.

  6. Check the return codes. Return code 0 is expected for the APPLY and ACCEPT operations.

    The SMP report output should show that the CA OPS/MVS functions have been received, applied, and accepted.

For ESD installations

  1. Customize the job in the prefix.OPS.SAMPJCL(INSTSMP3)

    The INSTSMP3 job uses the data sets created by the INSTSMP1 job to perform the SMP/E RECEIVE, APPLY, and ACCEPT tasks.

  2. Change the job card to meet installation standards.
  3. Set the ESDPFX to the prefix used for the ESD downloaded data sets.
  4. Change the SMPEPFX JCL variable to match the SMP/E data set prefix used in INSTSMP1
  5. Submit the job.

    The data sets created in Step 3 are populated with the correct installation settings.

  6. Check the return codes. Return code 0 is expected for the APPLY and ACCEPT operations.

    The SMP report output should show that the CA OPS/MVS functions have been received, applied, and accepted.

Important! Besides possibly changing data set names used in sample JCL, you will need to make other changes to other sample elements installed into the SMP/E target libraries. The CNTL library is one such library. Changes to the SMP/E target libraries must be made using SMP/E. Therefore, after you complete the SMP/E installation, you should make copies of modifiable target data sets for editing outside of SMP/E, and for actual use by CA OPS/MVS during execution.
