    Introduction

    This program directory is intended for system programmers who are responsible for program installation and maintenance. It contains information about the material and procedures associated with the installation of IBM Application Delivery Foundation for z/OS. This publication refers to

    The Program Directory contains the following sections:

    Before installing Application Delivery Foundation, read the CBPDO Memo To Users and the CBPDO Memo To Users Extension that are supplied with this program in softcopy format and this program directory; after which, keep the documents for your reference. Section "Preventive Service Planning" tells you how to find any updates to the information and procedures in this program directory.

    Application Delivery Foundation is supplied in a Custom-Built Product Delivery Offering (CBPDO, 5751-CS3). The program directory that is provided in softcopy format on the CBPDO is identical to the hardcopy format if one was included with your order. All service and HOLDDATA for Application Delivery Foundation are included on the CBPDO.

    Do not use this program directory if you install Application Delivery Foundation with a z/OSMF Portable Software Instance (ServerPac). When you use one of those offerings, use the jobs and documentation supplied with the offering. The offering will point you to specific sections of this program directory as needed.
