Step 2. Allocate the BINLIB and RUNLIB Libraries for the HotFix

On the z/OS system, you must allocate the BINLIB and RUNLIB libraries that will receive files from the PowerExchange hotfix.

These libraries must have the same attributes as the libraries that you allocated for the first-time installation or last upgrade. However, the fully qualified library names must be different from those of the previous libraries.

The libraries that you allocate must have the predefined PDS names of BINLIB and RUNLIB. Use a high-level qualifier (HLQ) that is different from the HLQ in the existing PowerExchange environment.

On the z/OS system, allocate the BINLIB and RUNLIB libraries in one of the following ways:

Use the ISPF Option 3.2.

Use JCL such as the following sample JCL for allocating the RUNLIB library:

//ALLOC     EXEC PGM=IEFBR14
//DS1  DD DSNAME=&HLQ..RUNLIB,
//          DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE),SPACE=(CYL,(20,10,50),RLSE),
//          DCB=(BLKSIZE=nn,RECFM=FB,LRECL=80,DSORG=PS),
//          VOL=SER=volume_serial_number

Record the HLQ that you use. You must enter this value as the HLQ value for the

HOTFIX Data Sets

group on the

Data Set Group Details

page in the z/OS Installation Assistant.

The following table describes the parameters to use for allocating the BINLIB and RUNLIB libraries on 3390 DASD:

Library	Description	Space Units (3390)	Space Quantity (pri,sec)	Directory Blocks	DCB Characteristics
BINLIB	PDS that contains the software libraries in TSO/E transmitted format.	CYLS	(160, 10)	10	RECFM FB LRECL 80 BLKSIZE any valid value, often a multiple of the LRECL value
RUNLIB	PDS that contains the jobs to install PowerExchange, jobs to set up and run PowerExchange, and configuration data. The AAINDEX member describes each member in RUNLIB.	CYLS	(10,1)	50	RECFM FB LRECL 80 BLKSIZE any valid value, often a multiple of the LRECL value
