Chapter 3. FLEX-ES and OS/390 installation

This chapter describes the installation process for FLEX-ES. System definitions, resource definitions, and operation is described in the next chapter. This chapter also describes the installation of an OS/390 AD CD-ROM system. If you do not use these AD systems, you should skip this section and work with your IBM business partner to understand alternate methods for installing S/390 software.
