Mainframe 2.0

Starting with this release, installation changed to conform to Mainframe 2.0 standards. Mainframe 2.0 is an initiative to make it easier to obtain, install, and configure a mainframe CA product. CA Workload Automation SE can be obtained through Electronic Software Delivery (ESD). ESD does not require an installation tape because the files are in a compressed PAX format. The actual installation steps can use these files directly. Also with Mainframe 2.0, the elements are placed into separate data sets, as indicated by the SMP/E DDDEFs.

In this release, SAMPJCL contains only JCL for the SMP/E installation steps, with the install and upgrade note members. All other elements formerly located in the SAMPJCL data set have been moved under SMP/E control and are found in either the CAL2JCL or CAL2OPTN target libraries. This move permits the application of maintenance to these members during the r11.3 lifecycle. The member names now begin with AL2, which is the CA Workload Automation SE product code. For example, the $$INDEX member is now renamed AL2$$IDX. The CAL2OPTN library contains a cross-reference of the old member name to the new member name and the location of the new member in member AL2$$XRF.

The SMP/E global CSI has been renamed to end with ".CSI" instead of ".SMPCSI.CSI". The target and distribution zone names are changed to CAIT0 and CAID0. The target library DDDEFs for are prefixed with CAL2. The distribution library DDDEFs are prefixed with AAL2. This release contains a number of new target and distribution libraries, which are listed in the Installation Guide.

Other notable changes to the SMP/E installation include the following:

• The CA Workload Automation SE module library is named CAL2LOAD, which was either CAILOAD or CAILIB in previous releases.
• The EARL and Easytrieve report members have been moved from CAIMAC to either CAL2EARL (Earl reports) or CAL2EZTR (Easytrieve reports). The includes or macros for these reports have been moved to CAL2ECPB (EARL copybook) or CAL2EZTM (Easytrieve macros). Existing user-owned EARL/Easytrieve JCL members must be updated to reflect these new libraries. Refer to CAL2JCL members AL2EARL or AL2EZ.
• The Email Address library, which was previously created as part of the SMP/E installation as CAI.CAIEADDR, has been removed from the SMP/E function because it contained no members. If you are using the SMP/E version of this library, it is removed when you delete the r11.1 environment. You can continue to use it if you do not delete the library, or choose to copy it to another fixed-block, 80-byte PDS. This data set name is referenced on the initialization file EMAIL statement, keyword EADDRLIB, or in the CA7ONL JCL as DDNAME EADDRLIB.
• USERMODs have been renamed to begin with AL2UMnn instead of UL2Brnn, where nn is the USERMOD number and r is the r11 release (0 for r11.0, 1 for r11.1).
• The function name has changed format from CL2Br00 to CAL2B30.
