TEXT FILES
-------------------------------------------------------------------
LICENSE.TXT - PKWARE's software license agreement
GLOBAL CONTACTS.TXT - How to contact Domestic and international
resellers
README.TXT - This file you are reading
INSTALL.JCL - Receive the Transmitted XMIT file. Default to
a NON SMP/E or alternatively specify an SMP/E
install with optional OVERWRITE to perform a
DELETE during TSO RECEIVE
WHATSNEW.TXT - A text file documenting product changes
-------------------------------------------------------------------
BINARY FILES
-------------------------------------------------------------------
INSTALL.XMIT - A binary XMIT containing the following library
files to be RECEIVED:
CEXEC (Compiled REXX Library)
HELP (Message Library)
INSTLIB (Installation Library - FB)
INSTLIB2 (Installation Library - VB)
LOAD (Load Library)
MACLIB (Macro Library)
SPKZCLIB (REXX Library)
SPKZMLIB (Message Library)
SPKZPLIB (Panel Library)
SPKZSLIB (Skeleton Library)
SPKZTLIB (Table Library)
MCS (SMP/E Only)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
IV. TRANSFERRING THE INSTALL.JCL TO THE HOST:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
(1) Transfer the text file "INSTALL.JCL" to the host. You may
transfer the file into an existing PDS or you may use the
allocation in step "2" below.
Convert the data from ASCII to EBCDIC
Insert CR/LFs
(2) A suitable allocation for "INSTALL.JCL" is as follows:
SPACE UNITS: BLKS
BLKS: 5 (PRI)
1 (SEC)
DIRBLKS: 0
RECFM: FB
LRECL: 80
BLKSIZE: 3120
DSORG: PS
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
V. TRANSFERRING THE XMIT DATASET TO THE HOST:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
When transferring the INSTALL.XMIT file to the host, it is imperative that
BINARY mode is used to prevent any kind of translation of the data.
If any form of translation occurs, your uploaded dataset will be corrupted.
(1) Allocate the INSTALL.XMIT to the installation HLQ
(Example: pkware.mvs.INSTALL.XMIT).
A suitable allocation is as follows:
SPACE UNITS: CYLS
BLKS: 100 (PRI)
10 (SEC)
DIRBLKS: 0
RECFM: FB
LRECL: 80
BLKSIZE: 3120
DSORG: PS
(2) Transfer the distribution dataset INSTALL.XMIT from your PC
into the target data set.
Do not translate the data
Do not insert CR/LFs
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
VI. RUNNING THE INSTALL.JCL:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The INSTALL.JCL will perform either a NON SMP/E or SMP/E install.
There is a built-in user switch in the Optional Configuration section
to do an SMPE_INSTALL setup, and/or an OVERWRITE.
(1) Before you submit the INSTALL.JCL, you will need to modify the job card.
(2) You will also need to specify the correct INDSN and DSNAME values in
the RECVXMIT STEP.
a) INDSN is the high level qualifier of the XMIT'd data set you
transferred from the PC to the host.
b) DSNAME is the DSN that gets created by this job.
It's what you want to call the installed PKZIP product libraries.
(3) Next, modify the job variables in the RUNINST step.
For Example:
PHLQ = 'pkware.mvs'
PUNT = 'sysda'
PVOL = 'volume'
(4) Submit the job, and review and correct any non-zero return codes.
(5) If a NON SMP/E installation is selected, confirm the final RC=0 for a
successful completion of all steps and product installation.
(6) If an SMP/E installation is selected, confirm the final RC=0 for a
successful completion of all steps and then continue on to step
VII. SMP/E INSTALLATION.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
VII. SMP/E INSTALLATION:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The installation and software management of PKZIP for z/OS can be
accomplished with SMP/E. Although the product requires no operating
system modifications or authorized routines, the ability to manage the
software is enhanced using IBM's SMP/E facilities.
(1) OPTIONAL: To delete existing PKZIP data sets, add a job card,
modify and run the pkware.mvs.INSTALL.OUT($SMPCLN)
(2) To complete the SMP/E installation, add a job card, modify and run the
pkware.mvs.INSTALL.OUT($SMPINST)
The following steps will be performed:
S01DFCSI - Define SMP CSI
S02ALLOC - Define PKZIP data sets
S03UCLIN - Update SMP configuration via UCLIN
S04RECV - SMP Receive PKZIP
S05APPLY - SMP Apply PKZIP
S06ACCPT - SMP Accept PKZIP
S07UPDAT - Update INSTLIB Sample members
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
VIII. TAILORING YOUR PKZIP INSTALLATION:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The high level qualifier (pkware.mvs) you selected to use must be
defined in the defaults module used for the installation of PKZIP for
z/OS. This is accomplished by editing and assembling the sample provided
in pkware.mvs.INSTLIB(ACZDFLT).
****** There is an SMP usermod in
pkware.mvs.INSTLIB(ACZDFLUM) which can
take the place of ACZDFLT AND ASMDFLT. *******
(1) Verify the following parameters to match your data set name high level
qualifier for the installation of PKZIP for z/OS:
MCZDFLTS TYPE=CSECT, *
LICENSE_HLQ=pkware.mvs, *
PARMLIB_DSNAME_ZIP=pkware.mvs.INSTLIB, NOTE2 *
PARMLIB_DSNAME_UNZIP=pkware.mvs.INSTLIB, NOTE2 *
The above "PARMLIB_DSNAME_ZIP/UNZIP" statements may be coded with
the value "NULLFILE" if you choose not to use PARMLIB for ZIP
and UNZIP defaults. Doing this will prevent PKZIP from allocating
the PARMLIB during ZIP and UNZIP jobs.
(2) **NOTE**
You may modify the other values in this module, or you may add
to it. However, this can also be accomplished through the
ISPF interface and selecting ZD or UD to further tailor the
defaults. At minimum, the above three lines need to be modified,
saved, and assembled in batch - see step (4) for assembling.
(3) Save any changes made to the ACZDFLT member.
(4) Edit the ASMDFLT member of the INSTLIB. You will need to
use this member to re-assemble the ACZDFLT module you modified
in the previous steps.
(5) Be sure to verify the high level qualifiers and UNITs before you
save and execute this job.
(6) *** NOTE***
Do not modify anything within pkware.mvs.MACLIB(MCZDFLTS).
(7) A PDS (without a member) may be specified to support -INCLUDE_CMD.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
IX. INITIALIZING PKZIP for z/OS FOR A TRIAL:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
You will need to contact PKWARE, Inc. Sales at 937.847.2374 and select
option 1, or email sales at pksales@pkware.com to initialize your version
of PKZIP for z/OS for the trial. If you do not work in the USA, please
refer to the "Global Contacts.txt" file to contact a dealer in your region.
You will need to provide Sales with a license report. To run a license
report, please edit and run the LICSHSYS member of the pkware.mvs.INSTLIB.
Please have the output of this report available when speaking with the
account rep. You will be expected to supply the following information:
Company Name
Company Contact
Phone number
Contact Email
The license keys will be sent via email. To apply the key simply follow
the step-by-step instructions contained within the body of the email.
After the license key has been successfully applied, you may proceed to
the next step.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
X. ACTIVATING THE ISPF INTERFACE:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
To configure PKZIP ISPF, you may need to make a few modifications
to the pkware.mvs.INSTLIB(PKZSTART) member.
(1) Verify the following REXX environment variables:
env = 'CEXEC'
ispfhlq = 'pkware.mvs'
llib = 'pkware.mvs.LOAD'
a) If your environment doesn't support compiled REXX, change the value
of 'env' to 'EXEC'. This defaults to 'CEXEC'
b) Change the value of 'ispfhlq' to reflect the high level qualifier
for the ISPF data sets. This defaults to 'pkware.mvs'
c) Change the value of 'llib' to indicate the name of the installed
load library. The default is 'pkware.mvs.LOAD'
(2) Now save your changes to the PKZSTART member.
(3) To test whether your configuration has worked, simply type "EXEC"
next to the PKZSTART member, or on the "Option" line enter
TSO EXEC 'pkware.mvs.INSTLIB(PKZSTART)'.
