Step 1
Download the GENPREP Facility
The GENPREP facility is distributed as a binary XMI file.
Download the XMI file from here.
|
|
|
| |
|
Step 2 Upload the GENPREP Facility to the Target z/OS System
File transfer the XMI file downloaded in Step 1 up to the target z/OS system as a binary file. The XMI file must be transferred as a binary file otherwise the file will be corrupt.
|
|
|
| |
|
Step 3
RECEIVE the Transferred File
Issue the TSO RECEIVE command for the file that was transferred to the target system.
RECEIVE your.uploaded.file.XMI
|
|
|
| |
|
Step 4
Run the UNPACK member of the Received Dataset
The UNPACK member of the received dataset will extract the four datasets that comprise the GENPREP facility.
Follow the prompts issued by the UNPACK member and the ISPPLIB, ISPMLIB, LOADLIB and REXX datasets and a PDF dataset will be allocated and populated with all
of the required components.
To execute the UNPACK member either put an EX next to the member i.e.

Alternatively issue the execute as you would any other REXX exec. i.e.
TSO EX 'your.received.dataset(UNPACK)' |
|
|
| |
|
Step 5
Read the $$INSTAL Member to Complete the Installation
The $$INSTAL member of the received dataset contains instructions of how to complete the installation
of the GENPREP facility.
The implementation will differ depending on the site standards but
essentially you need to make the ISPPLIB, ISPMLIB and REXX libraries available to the users.
Optionally you can make the UCBSUBR program available to the TSO user.

Notice About UCBSUBR
UCBSUBR is only used to check to see if a disk volume is online
it really isn't needed if you are using only catalogued dataset.
Even if you do use a volume serial number and UCBSUBR isn't
installed the exec will still work by trying to allocate a temporary
dataset on the volume. This is fine if the volume is online and
you have access to it, however, if the volume isn't online the
operator may have to reply to a WTO. |
