Issue/Introduction
The instructions provided are those to do the upgrades of CA View / CA Deliver, regardless of release level.
The instructions start at what to do after product download and fundamental installation have taken place.
Environment
Resolution
. Stop any related CA Deliver RMOSTC started tasks, using "/F rmostc,OFF", to withdraw any hooks in the system.
. Stop all related CA View started tasks (SARSTC, SARFSS, SAREAS, SARXMS, etc.), as any task can result in a database update.
. To upgrade CA View:
. Run SARDBASE UNLOAD on the database of the previous release, to have a copy of the database before the upgrade.
. Create a backup copy of the View loadlib, of the previous release.
. Copy the View loadlib, of the new release, to the production system.
. Issue "/F LLA,REFRESH".
. With the new code, run SARDBASE VERSION nn.n, corresponding to the new release.
. Items that can be customized in CA View are:
. . Panels - CVDEPENU library
. . . Prior to running the SARDBASE OLOAD, customize the CVDEPENU(SARJCL1) member, as it uses a bogus library name in the //STEPLIB statement.
. . Banners - CVDEJCL library
. . . It is possible that a standard banner may have been customized, and the new release's standard banner (of the same name) could possibly overlay anything customized.
. . . Please ensure that anything customized is in place before any LOADing is done.
. . User Exits
. . . Compare the size of a default exit module to one that is possibly customized, and a customized exit will usually show to be larger.
. . . If exit modification is identified, move the changes made to the exit code to the newly-supplied exit code, as default exit code could have been changed.
. Run SARDBASE OLOAD, to load the new panels.
. Run SARDBASE BLOAD, to load the new banners.
. Customize the SARSTC started task PROC, to have the same DDs and members referenced.
. Optionally, have a //STEPLIB of the new View loadlib.
. If running a SARXMS (cross-memory) task, alter it with the change in View release being run (noting PGM=ExnDRV name).
. Update any corresponding logon profiles with the new libraries.
. APF authorize the new loadlib.
. To upgrade CA Deliver:
. Run RMODBASE UNLOAD on the database of the previous release.
. Create a backup copy of the Deliver loadlib, of the previous release.
