| <var class="product">[[UL/SPF]]</var> (the User Language System Productivity Facilities) is a set of application subsystems (aka APSYs) running inside a <var class="product">Model 204</var> Online that provide full-screen and web-based tools to aid programmers, DBAs, and system managers to handle the complexities of <var class="product">User Language</var> and file and system management.
| | #REDIRECT [[RKTools installation]] |
| | |
| Installing <var class="product">UL/SPF</var> requires downloading the SIRIUS file and restoring it to your environment, setting up some subsidiary <var class="product">Model 204</var> files, and verifying that the environment has the appropriate parameter settings.
| |
| | |
| Upgrades to <var class="product">UL/SPF</var> can almost always be handled by restoring a fresh copy of the SIRIUS file.
| |
| | |
| ==A summary of the UL/SPF installation steps==
| |
| The following checklist specifies in brief the steps to follow installing
| |
| <var class="product">UL/SPF</var>, whether for MVS or CMS.
| |
| The sections [[#Installing UL/SPF under CMS|"Installing UL/SPF under CMS"]] and [[#Installing UL/SPF under MVS|"Installing UL/SPF under MVS"]] describe these steps in greater detail for each operating system.
| |
| <ol>
| |
| <li>Install and link the <var class="product">Sirius Mods</var> as described in the <i>Sirius
| |
| Mods Installation Guide</i>.
| |
| <var class="product">UL/SPF</var> requires a matching or greater version number of the <var class="product">Sirius Mods</var>.
| |
| | |
| <li>Allocate the space required for the <var>SIRIUS</var> dataset,
| |
| and <var>RESTORE</var> it from tape, where they are stored in <var>DUMP</var>
| |
| format, or from the <var>DUMP</var> files found on the website.
| |
| <p>
| |
| In addition, there may be any number of other datasets required for
| |
| the <var class="product">UL/SPF</var> components you are installing.
| |
| These are listed in [[#Installation checklist (CMS)|"Installation checklist (CMS)"]] and [[#Installation checklist (MVS)|"Installation checklist (MVS)"]]. </p>
| |
|
| |
| <li>Update the Online JCL or EXEC:
| |
| <ul>
| |
| <li>Add the DD cards or FILEDEFs for the SIR<i>xxxxx</i> and/or JAN<i>xxx</i> files.
| |
|
| |
| <li>Verify that the <var>SYSOPT</var> parameter has the 1 and 2 bits set.
| |
| </ul>
| |
|
| |
| <li>Update CCAIN parameters:
| |
| <ul>
| |
| <li>Increase <var>NFILES</var>, <var>NDCBS</var>, and <var>NDIR</var> for the SIR<i>xxxxx</i> and/or JAN<i>xxx</i> files.
| |
|
| |
| <li>Verify that <var>NORQS</var> is at least 5.
| |
| | |
| <li>Verify the online has at least 10 [[Sdaemons|SDAEMON]] threads (typically defined as IODEV15s).
| |
| </ul>
| |
|
| |
| <li>Start the Online, using an <var>ONLINE</var> load module that contains the
| |
| <var class="product">Sirius Mods</var>.
| |
|
| |
| <li>Open file SIRIUS and execute the following command:
| |
| <p class="code">INCLUDE SETUP.EXE</p>
| |
| <p>
| |
| Follow the instructions on the installation screen (and in the Help
| |
| text for the screen).</p>
| |
|
| |
| <li>Add users to the appropriate SCLASSs for the Sirius APSYs.
| |
|
| |
| <li>Verify success of the installation by compiling each Sirius APSY.
| |
|
| |
| <li>Read [[#UL/SPF server size and additional customization|"UL/SPF server size and additional customization"]]
| |
| to determine if additional APSY-specific customizations are required at your site.
| |
| | |
| <li>Use the APSY named SIRADMIN to customize the <var class="product">UL/SPF</var> environment.
| |
| </ol>
| |
| | |
| | |
| ==Preparing for UL/SPF installation==
| |
| The <var class="product">UL/SPF</var> products are implemented as <var class="product">Model 204</var> subsystems.
| |
| The code for all the component subsystems resides in the file named <code>SIRIUS</code> which is typically downloaded from the product section of the website.
| |
|
| |
| ===Obtaining product installation files===
| |
| The files necessary for the installation are available either from
| |
| distribution tapes or from the Sirius website.
| |
| Downloading and installing from the website is generally easier, as you don't have to
| |
| wait for tapes to arrive and be cataloged onto your system.
| |
|
| |
| To download product files from the Sirius website:
| |
| <ol>
| |
| <li>On the Sirius home page, click the "Support" link in the
| |
| "Sirius Home" list in the yellow navigation frame.
| |
| <li>In the "Customer Service" section, click the "Download User Language files" link.
| |
| | |
| This brings you to a Customer Maintenance
| |
| page that contains a list of Sirius Software <var class="product">User Language</var>
| |
| dump files.
| |
| A link on this page provides Help on downloading format, some information about
| |
| different browser behaviors, file sizing information, and more.
| |
| </ol>
| |
| | |
| '''Re-Installing''' <var class="product">UL/SPF</var> typically involves nothing more than downloading and restoring a new version of the SIRIUS file.
| |
| | |
| ===Determining eligible products===
| |
| To download files or maintenance from the Sirius web site, you must have
| |
| a user ID provided by Sirius (contact Technical Support if you need an ID).
| |
| The web site will show only products
| |
| for which your organization is up to date on maintenance or rental payments.
| |
| If a product does not appear on your download page and you believe it should,
| |
| contact Technical Support.
| |
| | |
| If you are working from a distribution tape, files for products
| |
| not purchased by your organization will be present but empty on the installation tape.
| |
|
| |
| Any step of the installation process may be bypassed if it
| |
| applies only to a <var class="product">UL/SPF</var> module you are not
| |
| installing.
| |
|
| |
| ===System requirements===
| |
| <ul>
| |
| <li><var class="product">UL/SPF</var> operates in a <var class="product">Model 204</var> online region, and
| |
| Sirius supports all releases of <var class="product">Model 204</var> that are supported by Rocket/Computer
| |
| Corporation of America.
| |
|
| |
| In the rest of this document, "Online" refers to a region of
| |
| <var class="product">Model 204</var> running an ONLINE load module containing the
| |
| <var class="product">Sirius Mods</var>.
| |
|
| |
| <li>Requirements for server sizes and
| |
| parameter settings for each product are listed in [[#UL/SPF server size and additional customization|"UL/SPF server size and additional customization"]].
| |
|
| |
| <li><var class="product">Sirius Mods</var> custom methods and $functions must be activated.
| |
| | |
| The <var class="product">UL/SPF</var> products make extensive use of custom
| |
| $functions that are part of the <var class="product">Sirius Mods</var>.
| |
| Before continuing with installation, follow the instructions in the <i>[http://sirius-software.com/maint/download/siri.pdf Sirius Mods Installation Guide]</i> to make the $functions active in the target Online.
| |
|
| |
| To test that the <var class="product">Sirius Mods</var> is installed and linked, enter <code>SIRIUS</code>
| |
| at the <var class="product">Model 204</var> command line to display the status of the
| |
| <var class="product">Sirius Mods</var>.
| |
| An error results if the <var class="product">Sirius Mods</var> is not linked into the Online.
| |
| </ul>
| |
| | |
| ===User privileges===
| |
| The installing user '''must have''':
| |
| <ul>
| |
| <li>Update access to the JCL or EXECs that bring up the host Online.
| |
|
| |
| <li>System Manager privileges, as well as access to SUBSYSMGMT and the JCL or EXEC that
| |
| runs the Online <var class="product">Model 204</var> region.
| |
| </ul>
| |
|
| |
| ===Full Install or Quick Install===
| |
| <ul>
| |
| | |
| <li>Sites that have never installed <var class="product">UL/SPF</var> ''must'' use the full
| |
| installation, as there are a number of files to allocate and <var
| |
| class="product">Model 204</var> parameters to update.
| |
| | |
| <li>Sites that are re-installing the latest version of <var class="product">UL/SPF</var>
| |
| may use the [[#A "Quick Install" for existing UL/SPF sites|quick-install]] or the full installation (some of whose steps would already be complete,
| |
| such as the allocation and initialization of SIRLOCAL).
| |
| | |
| <li>If you are upgrading from a previous version or maintenance level,
| |
| your site already has a SIRLOCAL file, which holds users' profiles and other local customizations.
| |
| Your existing SIRLOCAL should be left intact and allocated to the Online,
| |
| as the installation process uses SIRLOCAL information to determine which features should be upgraded.
| |
| </ul>
| |
| | |
| | |
| ==A "Quick Install" for existing UL/SPF sites==
| |
| If your site hosts a version of <var class="product">UL/SPF</var> earlier than 6.8, you cannot use this "Quick Install."
| |
| | |
| You can verify the <var class="product">UL/SPF</var> version either in the title of any <var class="product">UL/SPF</var> Help screen, or by looking at the content of the VERSION procedure in the SIRIUS file.
| |
|
| |
| Here are the ''Quick Install'' steps:
| |
| | |
| <ol>
| |
| <li>From the "User Language dump files" page in the Support section of the
| |
| Sirius website, download the latest version of the SIRIUS file (which is labeled "All UL/SPF
| |
| products in one file").</li>
| |
| | |
| <li>Verify that the online in which you are installing contains a version of the <var class="product">Sirius Mods</var> equal to or greater than the <var class="product">UL/SPF</var> version.</li>
| |
| | |
| <li>Restore the SIRIUS file into a 4200-page file on your mainframe.
| |
| The DDNAME for this file in your <var class="product">Model 204</var> regions is also <code>SIRIUS</code>.
| |
| | |
| If you are upgrading from a previous release, simply overlay your old SIRIUS file.
| |
| | |
| <li>If your site uses the web version of <var class="product">[[SirMon]]</var>, there is a change between Version 7.7 and 8.1 to the file that holds historical performance information. You should delete from the <var class="product">SirMon</var> APSY definition the file <code>MONDATA</code>, and add the file <code>SIRSTATS</code>, allocated with at least 5000 pages. In file SIRIUS, run the procedure <code>CREATE.SIRSTATS</code> to define the fields in the SIRSTATS file.
| |
| </ol>
| |
| | |
| The <var class="product">UL/SPF</var> APSYs can be set to <code>AUTOSTART</code> if you like. <var class="product">[[SirScan]]</var>, <var class="product">SirMon</var>, and <var class="product">[[SirLib]]</var> have SCLASS-sensitive code, so SCLASSes should not be renamed or redefined for these systems.
| |
| | |
| Use the APSY utility SIRADMIN to customize <var class="product">UL/SPF</var> settings.
| |
| | |
| ==Installing UL/SPF under CMS==
| |
| This section gives instructions for installing <var class="product">UL/SPF</var> under CMS,
| |
| including general system and software requirements.
| |
| It assumes you have reviewed [[#Preparing for UL/SPF installation|"Preparing for UL/SPF installation"]] for details on <var class="product">UL/SPF</var> system requirements.
| |
|
| |
| The SIRIUS <var class="product">Model 204</var> file, which contains the <var class="product">User Language</var> code that runs <var class="product">UL/SPF</var>, can be obtained from the Support section of the website or from a Sirius distribution tape. If working from a tape, it is shipped with a single tape file in VMFPLC2 DUMP format that includes these files:
| |
| <table class="thJustBold">
| |
| <tr class="head"><th>File name</th>
| |
| <th>Contents</th></tr>
| |
| | |
| <tr><th><i>various</i></th>
| |
| <td>Files required for the installation of <var class="product">Sirius Mods</var>. See the <i>[http://sirius-software.com/maint/download/siri.pdf Sirius Mods Installation Guide]</i> for more details. </td></tr>
| |
| | |
| <tr><th nowrap>ULSPF DUMPSIRI</th>
| |
| <td>A <var class="product">Model 204</var> dump of the SIRIUS file, which is required for all the subsystems. </td></tr>
| |
| | |
| <tr><th>ULSPF DUMPFIX</th>
| |
| <td>A <var class="product">Model 204</var> dump of the SIRFIXES file, (the use of which is now deprecated).
| |
| </td></tr></table>
| |
|
| |
| Installation steps:
| |
| | |
| <ol>
| |
| <li>Install the <var class="product">Sirius Mods</var>.
| |
| <p>
| |
| <var class="product">UL/SPF</var> requires a matching or greater version number of the <var class="product">Sirius Mods</var>.
| |
| For information about installing the <var class="product">Sirius Mods</var>, see the <i>Sirius Mods Installation Guide</i>.</p>
| |
| | |
| <li>Allocate space for the Sirius files, and restore them from
| |
| the distribution tape or from the dump files downloaded off the Sirius website.
| |
| | |
| <ol type="A">
| |
| <li>Define and format a minidisk to hold the <var class="product">UL/SPF</var> installation files.
| |
| 3400 4096 byte CMS blocks should be sufficient in all cases.
| |
| This requires a 44 cylinder CMS minidisk on a 3390.
| |
|
| |
| <li>Attach a tape drive at virtual address 181 to the owner of the
| |
| installation minidisk defined in step 1.
| |
| Mount the Sirius distribution tape on this tape drive.
| |
|
| |
| <li>Load the files appropriate to your site with the <var>VMFPLC2 LOAD</var> command.
| |
| This can be done most simply with the following sequence of commands:
| |
| <p class="code">TAPE REW
| |
| VMFPLC2 LOAD (EOT
| |
| </p>
| |
|
| |
| <li>Allocate space for the required <var class="product">Model 204</var> data sets. A skeleton exec,
| |
| <var>ULSPFAL</var>, is provided for this purpose.
| |
| Modify this exec to perform the allocations on the appropriate minidisks.
| |
| Allocate space for the following data sets:
| |
| <table class="thJustBold">
| |
| <tr><th>SIRIUS

| <li>Verify that the Online environment allows the use of file groups and APSY subsystems.
| |
| <ul>
| |
| <li>To use permanent file groups, the Online must have allocated an
| |
| initialized CCAGRP file, and the SYSOPT parameter must contain the <code>2</code> bit.
| |
| | |
| <li>To use APSYs, an Online must have allocated an initialized CCASYS file
| |
| (with all fields defined), and the <var>SYSOPT</var> parameter must contain the 1 bit.
| |
| </ul>
| |
| For more information about APSYs and file groups, see the <i>[http://docs.rocketsoftware.com/nxt/gateway.dll/RKB6/system%20%26%20file%20management/m204_v7r4_system_manager.pdf Rocket Model 204 System Manager's Guide]</i>.

| <li>Start the <var class="product">Model 204</var> Online region, verifying that it points
| |
| to a load module containing the <var class="product">Sirius Mods</var>.
| |
| | |
| <li>Issue <code>OPEN FILE SIRIUS</code> (no password is required), and execute the following command:
| |
| <p class="code">INCLUDE SETUP.EXE
| |
| </p>
| |
|
| |
| This procedure performs all installation functions for new users, and all upgrade functions for reinstalling users.
| |
| No user profiles or other site-specific customization will be lost.
| |
| If any problems are encountered while running this procedure, correct the problem and re-execute.
| |
|
| |
| The procedure SETUP.EXE also builds an APSY subsystem called <code>SETUP.EXE</code>.
| |
| If installations need to be re-run, the subsystem may be invoked rather than the procedure.
| |
| | |
| During APSY execution, some error messages are not suppressed to aid in diagnosing any installation problems.
| |
| For example, you will be able to see if an installation failed because
| |
| a file was enqueued in a different Online, etc.
| |
|
| |
| <li>Add users to the appropriate SCLASSes for any private or semi-public Sirius APSYs.
| |
|
| |
| The installing user is automatically added to the administration SCLASS in all Sirius APSYs.
| |
|
| |
| <li>Verify the installation of the subsystem(s) by compiling all of the subsystems.

| If any of these subsystems fails to compile, ensure that the subsystem is STOPped, and run it under <code>TEST DEBUG</code> mode.
| |
| For example, to determine why SIRSCAN failed to compile, enter:
| |
| <p class="code">TEST DEBUG SIRSCAN
| |
| </p>
| |
|
| |
| <li>This step is optional.
| |
| Modify the online input stream so User 0 initializes (compiles) the <var class="product">UL/SPF</var>
| |
| subsystems.
| |
| Do this by placing one or more of the following in User 0's input stream:
| |
| <p class="code">SIRSCAN START
| |
| SIRFILE START
| |
| SIRPRO START
| |
| SIRMON START
| |
| SIRLIB START
| |
| JANMAN START
| |
| JANCAT START
| |
| START SUBSYSTEM ULSPF
| |
| </p>
| |
| This ensures that the subsystems are started for non-administrative
| |
| users, and it shifts the overhead of compilation to a non-peak
| |
| computing period.

| |
| | |
| ===UL/SPF server size and additional customization===
| |
| The minimum <var class="product">UL/SPF</var> server size requirements are listed below.
| |
| The actual server size requirements may vary slightly, because of table
| |
| settings in the local Online <var class="product">Model 204</var> regions, and because of slight
| |
| differences between UTABLE requirements in different versions of <var class="product">Model 204</var>.

| ====UTABLE settings====
| |
| As of <var class="product">UL/SPF</var> version 8.1 (June 2013), all <var class="product">UL/SPF</var> subsystems can be set to bypass UTABLE resets. Use the SIRADMIN subsystem to set this feature.
| |
| For versions prior to 8.1, and for those who choose to leave the UTABLE resets in place, <var class="product">UL/SPF</var> will capture local UTABLE settings before they reset them to those required by <var class="product">UL/SPF</var>.
| |
|
| |
| Initial problems with <var class="product">UL/SPF</var> subsystems are usually associated with one or two extremely small default UTABLE settings.
| |
| Running the failing APSY in <code>TEST DEBUG</code> mode will highlight UTABLE parameters that need to be increased.
| |
|
| |
| ====Additional setup for SirLib====
| |
| Read and follow the instructions in the appendix "Getting
| |
| Started" in the <var class="book">[http://sirius-software.com/maint/download/libr.pdf SirLib User's Guide]</var>.
| |
|
| |
| ====Additional setup for SirScan====
| |
| The <var class="product">SirScan</var> administrator may use SIRADMIN option 4 to set default I/O
| |
| and record maximums for users in the various <var class="product">SirScan</var> SCLASSes.
| |
| This is described at the beginning of the
| |
| <var class="book">[http://sirius-software.com/maint/download/scanr.pdf SirScan User's Guide]</var>.
| |
|
| |
| ====Additional setup for SirMon====
| |
| When users are added to SCLASSes, note that there is a special <var>BUMP</var> SCLASS.
| |
| Any user added to this SCLASS gains the ability to <var>BUMP</var> other users.
| |
| This class does not provide access to customizing options in <var class="product">SirMon</var>.
| |
| Only users in the ADMIN SCLASS are able to add custom screen definitions to <var class="product">SirMon</var>.
| |
|
| |
| If the <var class="product">SirMon</var> background monitor is to be used,
| |
| add the following line to User 0's input stream:
| |
| <p class="code">SIRMON BACKGROUND
| |
| </p>
| |
| The Background monitor may also be started automatically in a BATCH2 thread or an sdaemon thread.
| |
| Consult the <var class="book">[http://sirius-software.com/maint/download/libr.pdf SirMon User's Guide]</var>
| |
| for details.
| |
|
| |
| You can customize statistic thresholds or use the Sirius-supplied defaults to establish problem conditions.
| |
|
| |
| As of <var class="product">UL/SPF</var> Version 6.8, <var class="product">SirMon</var> has a feature to send warnings to
| |
| e-mail addresses and cell phones (via e-mail).
| |
| This feature requires <var class="product">[[Janus Sockets]]</var> and a started <var class="product">Janus Sockets</var> port.
| |
|
| |
| ====Additional setup for SirFile====
| |
| If the <var class="product">SirFile</var> background monitor is to be used, add the following line to User 0's input stream:
| |
| <p class="code">SIRFILE BACKGROUND
| |
| </p>
| |
| As with <var class="product">SirMon</var>, the Background monitor may be started automatically in a BATCH2 thread or in an
| |
| sdaemon thread, and you can consult the
| |
| <var class="book">[http://sirius-software.com/maint/download/filr.pdf SirFile User's Guide]</var> for details.
| |
|
| |
| You can customize the system and file-specific thresholds or use the
| |
| Sirius-supplied defaults to establish problem conditions.
| |
| | |
| ====UL/SPF access privileges and SCLASSes====
| |
| Each component application of <var class="product">UL/SPF</var> has its own APSY definition and
| |
| privileges associated with SCLASSes.
| |
| If you have a good reason for doing so, you can redefine any of the <var class="product">UL/SPF</var> APSYs as <var>PUBLIC</var>,
| |
| <var>SEMI-PUBLIC</var>, or <var>PRIVATE</var>.
| |
| [[Contacting Rocket Software Technical Support|Contact Rocket Software]] if you are unsure of the effect of a proposed change.
| |
| | |
| ==UL/SPF on the Web==
| |
| Web-specific versions of the <var class="product">UL/SPF</var> subsystems are actively being developed and supported, and they are available to sites that own <var class="product">[[Janus Web Server]]</var>.
| |
| | |
| All the <var class="product">UL/SPF</var> APSYs can be used on the web via <var class="product">Janus Web Legacy Support</var>, which simply translates the 3270 screens of the underlying product into HTML. Web-specific versions of both <var class="product">[[SirScan]]</var> and <var class="product">[[SirMon]]</var> can be invoked by setting up some <var class="product">Janus Web Server</var> web rules.
| |
| | |
| | |
| ===Setup for web-based SirScan===
| |
| Web-based <var class="product">SirScan</var> is very lightweight, and requires a minimum of web rules to run.
| |
| | |
| <ol>
| |
| <li>Define a <var class="product">Janus Web Server</var> port.
| |
| | |
| <li>Define the following rule to invoke <var class="product">SirScan</var>:
| |
| | |
| <p class="code">JANUS WEB <var class="term">portname</var> ON /SIRSCAN/* CMD 'SIRSCAN *'
| |
| </p>
| |
| | |
| <li>The above rule will make <var class="product">SirScan</var> available, but it will not necessarily require a logon to the system, so you will need to add rules to force users to log in as well:
| |
| | |
| <p class="code">JANUS WEB <var class="term">portname</var> DISALLOW /SIRSCAN/*
| |
| JANUS WEB <var class="term">portname</var> ALLOW /SIRSCAN/* USER *
| |
| </p>
| |
| | |
| <li>Because the above rules force users to login, the port on which <var class="product">SirScan</var> runs should either:
| |
| <ul>
| |
| <li>Be only on a company intranet.
| |
| <li>Be SSL protected, to prevent userids and passwords from being sent over the internet in clear text format.
| |
| </ul>
| |
| | |
| The above rules will work on an unprotected port, but it is '''very strongly recommended''' that this feature only be used when SSL protection is in effect.
| |
| </ol>
| |
| | |
| ===Setup for web-based SirMon===
| |
| This applies only to <var class="product">UL/SPF</var> Version 8.1 and later.
| |
| | |
| Because web-based <var class="product">SirMon</var> employs XML, XSLT, Javascript, a stylesheet and some graphics,
| |
| the web rules needed to run <var class="product">SirMon</var> on the web are a little more complex.
| |
| | |
| <ol>
| |
| <li>Define a <var class="product">Janus Web Server</var> port.
| |
| | |
| <li>Define the following rules to invoke <var class="product">SirMon</var>:
| |
| | |
| <p class="code">JANUS WEB <var class="term">portname</var> TYPE ANY *.PNG IMAGE/PNG
| |
| JANUS WEB <var class="term">portname</var> TYPE ANY *.CSS TEXT/CSS

| |
| </p>
| |
| | |
| <li>The above rules will make <var class="product">SirMon</var> available, but they will not necessarily require a logon to the system, so you will need to add rules to force users to log in as well:
| |
| | |
| <p class="code">JANUS WEB <var class="term">portname</var> DISALLOW /SIRMON/*
| |
| JANUS WEB <var class="term">portname</var> ALLOW /SIRMON/* USER *
| |
| </p>
| |
| | |
| <li>Because the above rules force users to login, the port on which <var class="product">SirMon</var> runs should either:
| |
| <ul>
| |
| <li>Be only on a company intranet.
| |
| | |
| <li>Be SSL protected, to prevent userids and passwords from being sent over the internet in clear text format.
| |
| </ul>
| |
| | |
| The above rules will work on an unprotected port, but it is '''very strongly recommended''' that this feature only be used when SSL protection is in effect.
| |
| | |
| '''Note:''' Using <var class="product">SirMon</var> on the web also requires the '''SIRSTATS''' file. As shown in the above web rules, SIRSTATS can be re-initialized each time the Online comes up. SIRSTATS contains historical snapshots of system performance, and the file will fill up if not archived or re-initialized on occasion.
