Step 5B. Upgrade by Using New Data Set Names (Optional)

Step 5B. Upgrade by Using New Data Set Names (Optional)

If you selected the
Upgrade by Using New Data Set Names
 option to use new data set names for the message, sample, and load libraries, complete this procedure.
After you select this upgrade option and progress through the z/OS Installation Assistant, you cannot switch to the alternative
Upgrade by Using Existing Data Set Names
 option without first restoring the InstParm file to the new installation directory.
  1. On the
    Import Existing Parameters
     page, if you did not manually copy the customized InstParm file from the existing PowerExchange installation to the upgrade installation directory, import the existing InstParm file.
    The z/OS Installation Assistant will update the installation parameters in the InstParm file based on your entries in the z/OS Installation Assistant.
    For more information, see Import Existing Parameters Page.
    Then, click
    Next
    .
    The
    Review Parameters
     page appears. For more information, see Review Parameters Page.
  2. Click
    Next
    .
    The
    Review Global Parameters
     page appears.
  3. Enter the high-level qualifier (HLQ) for the new data set names and review the other information.
    Then, click
    Next
    .
    The
    Select Data Set Group Details
     page appears.
  4. Review the volume and unit values for data sets.
    If necessary, you can change the volume and unit values for new data sets. For more information, see Data Set Group Details Page (New).
    Then, click
    Next
    .
    The
    Review General Parameters
     page appears.
  5. Review the general parameters.
    For more information, see General Parameters Page.
    Then, click
    Next
    .
    The
    Review Data Sources
     page appears.
  6. Review the data sources selected for bulk data movement and CDC operations. Optionally, add data source types.
    For more information, see Data Sources Page.
    Then, click
    Next
    .
    For an upgrade that uses new data set names, you cannot remove data sources. To remove data sources, you must perform a full installation.
    If any CDC data source was selected, the
    CDC Common Parameters
     page appears.
  7. On the
    Review CDC Common Parameters
     page, review the common parameters for CDC operations.
    For more information, see CDC Common Parameters Page.
    Then, click
    Next
    .
  8. Enter parameter settings for each data source that you selected on the
    Data Sources
     page.
    The following table lists the parameters page for each data source type:
    Page
    Reference
    Adabas Parameters
    Datacom Parameters
    DB2 Parameters
    DB2 CDC Parameters
    IDMS Parameters
    IDMS CDC Parameters
    IMS Parameters
    IMS CDC Parameters
    MQ Series Parameters
    VSAM Parameters
    If you selected multiple source types, click
    Next
     to proceed to the next page.
    After you click
    Next
     on the last parameters page, the
    Backup Data Sets
     page appears.
  9. Select the data sets that you want to back up.
    For more information, see Backup Data Sets Page.
    Then, click
    Next
    .
    The
    Create Runlib JCL
     page appears.
  10. Enter information about the RUNLIB and BINLIB libraries.
    For more information, see Create Runlib JCL Page.
    Then, click
    Next
    .
    The
    Transfer Files to Mainframe
     page appears. Also, the z/OS Installation Assistant creates the XRunlib folder. The XRunlib folder contains the files from the runlib folder, which are customized with the values that you entered in the z/OS Installation Assistant.
  11. On the
    Transfer Files to Mainframe
     page, enter information about the z/OS system to which to transfer files.
    For an upgrade that uses new data set names, the RUNLIB and BINLIB libraries are new libraries. These libraries are also the libraries to which the z/OS Installation Assistant transfers the RUNLIB and BINLIB data sets. You entered the HLQ for these libraries on the
    Data Set Group Details
     page.
    For more information, see Transfer Files to Mainframe Page.
    Then, click
    Next
    .
    The
    File Transfer Status
     page displays the status of the file transfer operation. For more information, see View File Transfer Status Page.
  12. After the file transfer completes, click
    OK
    .
  13. Click
    Finish
    .
    The z/OS Installation Assistant saves your installation entries to the InstParm file in the root installation directory on Windows if you have not already done so. The z/OS Installation Assistant also creates a corresponding INPARM
    nn
     file in the XRunlib directory on Windows and uses FTP to transfer this file to the RUNLIB library on z/OS. The INPARM
    nn
     member in the RUNLIB that has the largest
    nn
     value is the most recent version of the member.
