Installation

Product installation uses the following data sets:

dsnpref.OPB9.INSTDB

Stores your site-specific installation values, which can be reused in future installations of products in the same suite. The installation software allocates this data set the first time you perform an installation. The setup and maintenance software also uses this data set.

dsnpref.OPB9.INSTALL.JCL

Stores the generated product installation JCL members.

After the installation software has collected your site-specific installation values, it generates the installation JCL.

Before you generate the JCL, specify the library where you want to store the generated JCL. INSTALL.JCL is the default JCL library.

Use an empty data set each time you perform the installation. This process ensures that the jobs in your JCL library are the only ones required for the current installation.

dsnpref.OPB9.rname.JCL
dsnpref.OPB9.ssiname.JCL

Stores the setup jobs, including the members that contain the execution JCL statements required to run the product components.

After the setup software has collected the setup values for your region or SOLVE SSI, it generates the setup JCL.

dsnpref.OPB9.VTAM.JCL

Stores the generated VTAM major node and JCL to assemble mode tables.

After the Create VTAM Definitions software has collected your values, it generates the JCL.

dsnpref.OPB9.FIX.SPn.JCL
dsnpref.OPB9.FIX.DASD.JCL
dsnpref.OPB9.FIX.WEBCENTR.JCL

Stores the maintenance jobs that you run to apply maintenance to your installed products.

After the maintenance software has collected your maintenance values, it generates maintenance JCL.
