How do I upgrade from Datacom/AD 10.0/11.0/12.0 to Datacom/AD 15.1?
Release : 15.1
Component : CA Datacom/AD
The upgrade procedure changed in Datacom/AD 15.1 and is now called an Active MUF upgrade and is documented in section How to Perform an Active MUF Upgrade
However, the new Active MUF Upgrade process can only be performed from the previously supported release of Datacom/AD 14.0.
To upgrade from releases prior to 14.0 you need to use the same upgrade method as was used in prior releases, the migrate/porting process.
You can upgrade directly from Datacom/AD 10.0/11.0/12.0 to Datacom/AD 15.1 using the migrate/porting process.
Below is a summary of jobs you need to run to install the new 15.1 MUF and do the upgrade. Steps 1 - 4 can be run while the current Datacom/AD MUF and CA using products are running.
Install the Datacom/AD 15.1 Software. You do this by running these jobs from the SAMPJCL:
AAX1ALL
AAX1HOLD
AAX2CSI
AAX3RECD
AAX4APP
AAX5ACC
For more details see section 'Install Products Using Native SMP/E JCL" CA DATACOM/AD 15.1 - Install Products Using SMP/E JCL
As indicated in the RI88629 - *README: CA DATACOM/AD 15.1 FOR Z/OS, All published solutions for CA Datacom/AD 15.1 should be applied after the SMP/E install and before executing the configuration steps. Go to https://support.broadcom.com to download 15.1 solutions. Apply these solutions before you create each MUF's INSTJCL job AXCUS00 that will be used to migrate/port existing MUF environments or create new Datacom/AD MUF environments.
Run member AXCUS00 in CAAXSAMP to create the INSTJCL PDS. Once this is done, copy the migrate/porting member AXPOR01 or AXPOR02 from the CAAXSAMP library to your INSTJCL.
Create a new 15.1 Datacom/AD MUF by running these jobs from the INSTJCL:
AXCUSNEW
AXAPFADD
AXRIM01
AXNEW01
AD15STRT
You will need to run these jobs to create and customize each new Datacom/AD MUF as required for each of your CA product(s) using Datacom/AD. If installing additional MUFs in the same LPAR there is no need to run AXAPFADD and AXRIM01 again.
Note that job AXRIM01 installs the Program Call (PC) routines that will be active until the next IPL. In order to load these routines with each IPL, add the input from AXRIM01 RIMPC.PARMLIB to your CAS9 PARMLIB file.
For details see sections "Customization and Environment Steps" and "New Installation Phase" in CA Datacom/AD 15.1 - Installing - Techdoc
Note: AXCUSNEW will prepare a new 15.1 CUSLIB to be used by the MUF that is being upgraded. It has fewer members than prior releases.
Note: Use the Datacom/AD 15.1 provided startup options (AXDATIN1 and AXDATIN2) to start with since these are the recommended and certified default specifications.
Then customize the 15.1 AXDATIN1 if needed. Do not use your existing 10,0 11.0, or 12.0 MUF startup SYSIN parameters.
Stop the CA using product but keep the previous release MUF active.
Migrate the using product database to the new MUF by running job AXPOR01 for AD 12.0 or AXPOR02 for AD 10.0/11.0.
This JOB needs to be run for each CA using product DATABASE that is being migrated to THE NEW Version 15.1 MUF."
Update your CA using product JCL and change the STEPLIB and JCL procedures to point to the new Datacom/AD 15.1 CUSLIB and CAAXLOAD datasets and restart it.
