Installing the CA 7 Data Provider for AAI

This topic describes the steps to install the CA 7 Data Provider for AAI:

  1. Extract the installation package.

    1. Upload the CA 7 Data Provider for AAI R1.5 Build 210621 Installation Package file called CA7_Data_Provider_<version>.pax.Z to a zFS/HFS directory in USS (OMVS).

      Use the binary mode for the file transfer.

    2. Start an OMVS session and change the directory to the location where you have saved the CA7_Data_Provider_<version>.pax.Z file.

    3. To extract the content of the pax format file, issue the following command: pax –rvf CA7_Data_Provider_<version>.pax.Z.

  2. To start the Installer program, issue the following command: ./AIS7_Installer.

    The CA 7 Data Provider for AAI R1.5 Installer program will prompt for several values before performing the system install:

    • High Level Qualifier (HLQ)

      Mandatory

      High Level Qualifier (HLQ) to be used when creating the installation libraries. The installation libraries will be created using dataset names: your_HLQ.AIS7INST.CAI7xxxx.

    • SMS Class values

      Optional, can be null. If null, your user ID/system default SMS Class values are used for the allocation if SMS is active.

      Three prompts for the SMS Class values to be used for the allocation of the installation libraries (Management, Storage and Data).

    • Volume Serial number

      Optional, can be null. If null, case a system default volume would be used. If SMS is active then this value will be overridden by SMS at allocation time.

      Volume Serial number to be used for the allocation of the installation libraries if SMS is not used.

    • Assigned zFS/HFS directory

      zFS/HFS directory into which the CA 7 Data Provider for AAI OMVS executables will be stored. This directory must already exist.

    • Confirmation

      Prompt to confirm the installation value.

      Enter Y to execute the install. Enter EXIT to terminate the Installer program without any installation being performed.

  3. Review the messages issued during the installation process to ensure all activities completed successfully.

Note:

You must repeat this process on each LPAR where a CA7 Server for aai will run to install the OMVS executables. However, the z/OS Libraries created during the install can be discarded and the original (first) install libraries used for all instances.
