Download the product and maintenance releases using Electronic Software Delivery (ESD). Although CA MSM is the preferred method for installing your CA mainframe products, some sites may decide to use ESD method instead.
Business Value:
ESD lets you download the product and maintenance releases over the Internet directly to your system from the CA Support website. When you order the product, you receive the authorizations and instructions to access, download, and prepare the installation files without the need for a physical tape. Thus, ESD is timelier, cost-effective, and environment friendly.
It uses standard z/OS utilities to prepare the product installation image on your system.
More Information:
For sites who have decided to use ESD, download the installation files from ca.com/support and install directly from your disk.
For information on the steps to download your CA products from the CA Support Online web site for installation using the enhanced ESD pax process, see the Mainframe Enhanced Electronic Software Delivery guide posted on the Download page of support.ca.com.
