Issue installing RDz 9.1 in RDT (FEKSETUP)

  • 1.  Issue installing RDz 9.1 in RDT (FEKSETUP)

    Posted Wed November 02, 2016 11:05 AM

    Hi,

        I am trying to install RDz 9.1 in RDT. As I have the volume when ther is this software, It was not necessary to download HHOP910 package. So I make next tasks:
            1- Add the Product volumes to my devmap.
            2- IPL to zOS. I already see RDz 9.1.0 libraries as FEK910.*
            3- I read Program Directory, and these are the steps to do:
                  .- Execute FEKSEQAL - SMPE - Sample job to allocate sequential data sets for FTPing the product data sets into >> I did not that because I have not

                             HHOP910, and I already have the libraries available in my volumes.
                  .- Execute FEK1SMPE - Sample job to create an SMP/E environment (optional) >> I did not that, because I have not HHOP910.
                  .- Execute FEK2RCVE -  Sample SMP/E RECEIVE job >> The same as previous, I have not HHOP910 libraries.
                  .- FEK3ALOC - Sample job to allocate target and distribution libraries >> I have not execute this step because I already have allocated my libraries: FEK910.*.
                  .- FEK4MNT - Sample job to allocate and mount a file system (optional) >> This step was executed ok, I created my ZFS and it was mounted over

                             /usr/lpp/rdz910
                     .- FEK5MKD - Sample job to invoke the supplied FEKMKDIR EXEC to allocate z/OS UNIX paths >> This step was executed OK. All subfolders were

                             created under /usr/lpp/rdz910/*
                  .- FEK6DDEF - Sample job to define SMP/E DDDEFs >> I did not execute this step becasue I had to jump previous tasks with SMP/E
                  .- FEK7APLY - Sample SMP/E APPLY job >> I did not execute this step becasue I had to jump previous tasks with SMP/E
                  .- FEK8ACPT - Sample SMP/E ACCEPT job >> I did not execute this step becasue I had to jump previous tasks with SMP/E
                      
                     So, I had to pass all SMP/E tasks.

     

            4.- Now the next step in Host Configuration Guide is the exection of FEKSETUP JOB. I set up this JCL and executed it, but I received next error: 

                      IEF212I FEKSETU@ USS STDIN - DATA SET NOT FOUND

                      This error hapends because the first step go to execute shell script feksetup.sh in path /usr/lpp/rdz910 (where I mounted my ZFS), but really in this path only exists the tree of folders, but there are not files inside. So this script does not exist. 
       
           A) Have I to execute SMP/E steps to populate my File System with correct members?
           B) If I have to execute SMP/E tasks, which could be my SMPMCS?
           C) If I do not have to execute SMP/E steps, How can I populate my RDz File system /usr/lpp/rdz910?

     

    Thank you a lot in advance.

    Hi Sergio,

    Which version of the ADCD are you using?  If you are adding the product volumes for RDz into the ADCD you should not need to run the SMPE jobs or the configuration, this should have already been done.  Also depending on the version of the ADCD, the install location might not be in /usr/lpp/rdz910.  You also may need to modify some of your startup configuration in order to mount the RDz file system.

    Regards,

    Rick

    Hi Rick for your answer. 

      

         Really I added RDz910 volumes to ADCD running on zOS 1.13, the problem was that I could not mount ZFS files in correct mount point because I forgot RECATALOG this LINEAR Data Set. When I RECATALOG this VSAM ZFS I could mount that, and Bingo!, all USS files where inside this ZFS files. 

         Now I have running and working RDZ 9.1. 

     

        Thank you again.
