Datacom/AD 15.1 and CSM deployment

Products

• Datacom/AD

Issue/Introduction

I'm looking to run a deployment in Chorus Software Manager (CSM). I compared the data sets used in a Datacom/AD 15.0 deployment with the ones used in a Datacom/AD 15.1 deployment and found that data set CAAXDATV is missing.

 

Environment

Release : 15.1

Component : CA Datacom/AD

Cause

You cannot run a CSM Deployment with Datacom/AD version 15.1 . There is a defect open with R&D but no correction will be provided anymore since z/OSMF is the future.

Resolution

As documented in Complete Configuration Tasks ,after your product installation and maintenance tasks are complete, you must deploy and configure your product for execution.The deployment is a simple copy of the product SMP/E target data sets, which can then be configured for use on systems across your enterprise. The deployed objects include target libraries that are defined to SMP/E (also known as the deployment libraries). Creating a copy of the product SMP/E target data sets keeps the SMP/E environment clean and isolates the product SMP/E environment from the runtime foundation that is used in the day-to-day operation of the product. Subsequent maintenance activities will update the SMP/E environment without affecting the active product runtime environments. For maintenance to take affect, you must deploy the updated data sets and libraries to your runtime environments...

This deployment is a manual process and cannot be done in CSM.
