Installing Oracle Connect on an IBM OS/390 or z/OS Series Platform
6-10 Oracle Application Server Adapter for IMS/TM User’s Guide
■Access to an Open OS/390 segment (that defines access to TCP/IP OA
sockets).
■ALTER authority on datasets under INSTROOT to access to read, write, allocate
and delete datasets under INSTROOT.
■The installation includes a PS, INSTROOT.DEF.GBLPARMS, that contains global
environment information. This PS is read at startup and the correct software
version is used, based on the details provided in the startup task.
If you change the location of this member, then you must also change the relevant
cards in the following jobs to the new locations:
■ATTSRVR: Located in an active proclib, such as user.proclib
■ATTDAEMN: Located in an active proclib, such as user.proclib
■NAVSQL: Located in INSTROOT.USERLIB
■The input during the installation procedure is written to
nnn.BUILDKIT.SRC(PARS). You can use this file to provide the same inputs if
you rerun the installation, where nnn is the high-level qualifier you assign for the
installation.
■For information about specifying Oracle Connect as the service using port 2552 in
the TCP/IP network services file, refer to the TCP/IP documentation.
Starting the Daemon
Activate INSTROOT.USERLIB(ATTDAEMN) as a started task to invoke the daemon.
For example, in the SDSF screen enter the following:
'/s ATTDAEMN'
Where INSTROOT is the high-level qualifier where Oracle Connect is installed.
To submit the daemon as a job, remove comments from the first two lines of the
ATTDAEMN JCL, change the PARM line as described earlier, and run the job using the
sub command. The following is a sample ATTDAEMN JCL.
//*ATTDAEMN JOB 'RR','TTT',MSGLEVEL=(1,1),CLASS=A,
//* MSGCLASS=A,NOTIFY=&SYSUID,REGION=8M
//STEP1 EXEC PGM=IRPCD,
// PARM='-B START IRPCDINI'
//* PARM='-B -L :8883 START'
//STEPLIB DD DSN=INSTROOT.LOADAUT,DISP=SHR
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=A
//GBLPARMS DD DSN=INSTROOT.DEF.GBLPARMS,DISP=SHR
// EXEC PGM=IRPCD,COND=((1,EQ,STEP1),(2,EQ,STEP1)),
// PARM='-KATTDAEMN START ''INSTROOT.DEF.IRPCDINI'''
//STEPLIB DD DSN=INSTROOT.LOADAUT,DISP=SHR
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=A
//GBLPARMS DD DSN=INSTROOT.DEF.GBLPARMS,DISP=SHR
//SYSDUMP DD DUMMY
Setting Up Oracle Connect to Work Under IMS/TM
To run an IMS transaction, set OTMA (Open Transaction Manager Access), as follows:
1. Install OTMA with OTMA C/I where IMS resides, as OTMA is not automatically
installed using the IMS INSTALL/IVP Dialog.
2. During IMS system definition, set the startup parameter in the IMS procedure to
OTMA=YES. In addition, set additional OTMA-related parameters such as
