Install, Update, or Configure Other Products

The installation of CA WA CA 7 Edition requires the installation of CA Common Services CA Datacom/AD, CAIRIM, CAISSF (a subcomponent of CAIRIM), and CA LMP on your system.

Install or upgrade the JCLCheck Common Component if you are not using the full CA JCLCheck product or the JCLCheck Common Component has been installed for another CA Technologies product. CA WA CA 7 Edition expects CA JCLCheck to be at Version 12.0 or higher.

The JCLCheck Common Component can be used only from another CA Technologies product.

The JCLCheck Common Component software is found on a separate distribution package. Use the CA JCLCheck Common Component Installation Guide to install the JCLCheck Common Component.

If you must install or upgrade these services, do that process now keeping in mind the following items:

If you use the STEPLIB facility to point to the CA WA CA 7 Edition modules, ensure that all libraries in the STEPLIB DD concatenation are listed in the APF authorization list. If you are using a separate user table/exit library, CAL2MOD, place the CAL2MOD library ahead of the CAL2LOAD library in any STEPLIB concatenation.

If you have a facility available that can dynamically add APF entries, you can avoid an IPL. However, be certain to update your SYS1.PARMLIB so that these additions are engaged when you do IPL. Also, read through the next step and consider the implications of avoiding an IPL. Performing an IPL is sometimes easier than avoiding an IPL, depending on your circumstances.

Note: NCF2 sites require only the CAIRIM, CAISSF, and CA LMP components.
