Issue/Introduction

 

As part of the install of CALDAP R14 Sp01 (CDT9E00), there are no instructions on pre-allocating the /CA/ Directory for the SMP/E install.

 

 

Environment

Release:
Component: TSSLDP

Resolution

The following sample JCL can be used to create the CA directory:

//JobName  JOB ( ACCT)                                                       
//ESDMKDIR EXEC PGM=BPXBATCH,                                                
//       PARM='sh cd /Your/Install_Ldap/Directory; mkdir CA;           X     
//             cd CA'                                                        
//STDOUT   DD SYSOUT=*                                                       
//STDERR   DD SYSOUT=*                                                       

The "/Your/Install_Ldap/Directory" is the one that has to match with:

                                                                             
 /* CHANGE THE FULLY QUALIFIED PATH TO YOUR NAMING   */                      
 /* CONVENTIONS.  ENSURE THAT YOU INCLUDE /CA/ AT    */                      
 /* THE END OF THE PATH TO ACCOUNT FOR THE SMP/E     */                      
 /* COPY OF THE UNIX MODULES.                        */                      
 /*                        */                              

ADD DDDEF(CAIHFS) PATH('/Your/Install_Ldap/Directory/CA/').

In job: CAI.R9E0SPxx.SAMPJCL(CDT9UCSI) and has to be run before it.
The alternative is to create the CA directory under either OMVS or ISHELL.

The HFS file has to be mounted first.
