Overview of the installation steps

Steps required to install the fix:

  1. Allocate host data sets for the fix.
  2. Upload the fix from your workstation to z/OS.

Allocate host data sets for the fix

A sequential data set must be allocated on the z/OS system to receive the fix that you will upload from your workstation. You can do this by submitting the job below. Add a job card and modify the parameters to meet your site's requirements before submitting.

//ALLOC    EXEC PGM=IEFBR14
//*
//UI37833    DD DSN=hlq.IBM.HHOP910.UI37833,
//            DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE),
//            DSORG=PS,
//            RECFM=FB,
//            LRECL=80,
//            UNIT=SYSALLDA,
//*            VOL=SER=volser,
//*            BLKSIZE=6160,
//            SPACE=(TRK,(41,5))
//*

Upload the fix from your workstation to z/OS

Upload the file in binary format from your workstation to the z/OS data set. On a Windows system, you can use FTP from a command prompt to upload the file. In the sample dialog shown below, commands or other information entered by the user are in bold, and the following values are assumed:

User enters: Values
mvsaddr TC P/IP address of the z/OS system

Perform SMP/E ACCEPT for the prerequisites

SMP/E ACCEPT the prerequisites to facilitate an easy backout of the fix, if required. Note that once accepted, you cannot backout the accepted prerequisites.

This step can be skipped if there are no prerequisites, or if there is a reason to not make a prerequisite permanent.

You can accept the prerequisites by submitting the job below. Add a job card and modify the parameters to meet your site's requirements before submitting.

//*
//* Change #globalcsi to the data set name of your global CSI.
//* Change #dzone to your CSI distribution zone name.
//*
//ACCEPT   EXEC PGM=GIMSMP,REGION=0M
//SMPCSI   DD DISP=OLD,DSN=#globalcsi
