Implementation Checklist

This section provides instructions and suggestions for implementing the CA View EMC Centera Option:

Step

Task

Status

1

Obtain a license and install the LMP Key on the system running the Centera Option.

 

2

Authorize the Centera Run-time Library.

Note: The Centera Run-time Library is required in the JCL for the following functions:

SARINIT—Adding or changing the Centera IP Address.

SARDBASE—Unloading/Second and Merge.

SARSTC—Migrating to DSK2.

SARCAS—Reading SYSOUTs from DSK2.

SARDSK2B—Migrating to DSK2.

 

3

Run SARINIT to define the Centera Option parameters:

For example:

//SARINIT EXEC PGM=SARINIT

//STEPLIB DD DSN=CAI.CVDELOAD,DISP=SHR

// DD DSN=CAI.CEN31544.PROGLIB.OPT,DISP=SHR

//SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=*

//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*

//SYSIN DD *

NAME=VIEW.SYSTEM1

CENTADR=172.172.172.8,172.172.172.9

CENTPDSN=CENTERA.PEA.DATASET

CENTNAME=CAS1

/*

 

4

Add the appropriate entries to the ERO Table:

For example:

//IEBGENER EXEC PGM=IEBGENER

//SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=*

//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*

//SYSIN DD DUMMY

//SYSUT2 DD DSN=VIEW.SYSTEM1.SARPATAB (ERO), DISP=SHR

//SYSUT1 DD DATA, DLM='ºº'

/reportid ALL RETPD=365 DRETPD=1 D2RETPD=90 DSK2DAYS=0

DELETE

/* ALL RETPD=120 DRETPD=5

Note: Any report currently in location DISK, PERM, TEMP, and/or PTMP, that has been identified for migration to secondary storage will be migrated.

Any report not on primary storage remains in TAPE and/or PTAP status.

If these reports must be migrated to secondary storage, reload them back to primary storage before the backup cycle is run.

 

5

Add the Centera run-time library and the SARD2LST DD to the archival task

For example:

//SARSTC PROC OPT=

//SARSTC EXEC PGM=SARSTC, PARM='VIEW.SYSTEM1, &OPT'

//STEPLIB DD DSN=CAI.CVDELOAD,DISP=SHR

// DD DSN=CAI.CEN31544.PROGLIB.OPT, DISP=SHR

//SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=*

//SARRECV DD

//SARPATAB DD DSN=VIEW.SYSTEM1.SARPATAB (ERO), DISP=SHR

//SARXCTAB DD

//SARDRLST DD SYSOUT=*

//SARBKLST DD SYSOUT=*

//SARD2LST DD SYSOUT=*

// PEND

 

6

Define the Centera Access Server

For example:

//SARCAS PROC OPT=

//SARCAS EXEC PGM=SARCAS, TIME=1440, PARM= ('CASTNAME=CAS1')

//STEPLIB DD DSN=CAI.CVDELOAD,DISP=SHR

// DD DSN=CAI.CEN31544.PROGLIB.OPT, DISP=SHR

//SYSUDUMP DD SYSOUT=*

// PEND

 

7

Update the load library in all required JCL if the load library used for the Centera Option is different than the load library used for normal production functions.

 

8

Restart the archival task and start the Centera Access Server.

For example:

p sarstc

s sarstc

s sarcas

The Centera Option is now installed and normal access to all functions can begin.
