Dictionary/204 installation guide

Dictionary/204 Is a set of application subsystems (aka APSYs) running inside a Model 204 Online that provide full-screen and web-based tools to aid programmers, DBAs, and system managers to handle the complexities of User Language and file and system management.

Installing Dictionary/204 requires downloading the M204PROC file and restoring it to your environment, setting up some subsidiary Model 204 files, and verifying that the environment has the appropriate parameter settings.

Upgrades to Dictionary/204 can almost always be handled by restoring a fresh copy of the M204PROC file.

A summary of the Dictionary/204 installation steps

The following checklist specifies in brief the steps to follow installing Dictionary/204, whether for MVS, CMS or VSE. The sections Installing Dictionary/204 under VSE, Installing UL/SPF under CMS, and Installing Dictionary/204 under MVS describe these steps in greater detail for each operating system.

1. Allocate the space required for the M204PROC data set, and RESTORE it from the DUMP files found on the website.

   In addition, there may be any number of other data sets required for the Dictionary/204 components you are installing. These are listed in Installation checklist (VSE) ,Installation checklist (CMS) and Installation checklist (MVS).

2. Update the Online JCL or EXEC:
   • Add the DD cards, FILEDEFs or DLBLs for the Dictionary/204 files.
3. Update CCAIN parameters:
   • Increase NFILES, NDCBS, and NDIR for the Dictionary/204 files.
4. Start the Online, using an ONLINE load module that contains the Model 204 Version 7.5 or higher.
5. To install an update to Dictionary/204, open file M204PROC and execute the following command:

   INCLUDE DDRINST

   Follow the instructions presented on the installation screen (and in the Help text for the screen).

6. Verify success of the installation by compiling each Dictionary/204 APSY.
7. Use the APSY named DICTADMIN to customize the Dictionary/204 environment.

Preparing for Dictionary/204 installation

The Dictionary/204 products are implemented as Model 204 subsystems. The code for all the component subsystems resides in the file named M204PROC which is typically downloaded from the product section of the website.

Obtaining product installation files

The files necessary for the installation are available from the Rocket Software website.

To download product files from the Rocket website:

1. On the Rocket M204 Customer Care page, select the "Download Dictionary/204 files" link in the "Downloads and Uploads" section to access the "Dictionary/204 files for Rocket Software Inc." page.
2. After providing your registered customer login information, download the latest version of the Dictionary/204 file (which is labeled "Dictionary/204 products in one file" followed by a version number).

   A "Click here" link on this page provides Help on downloading format, some information about different browser behaviors, file sizing information, and more.

Determining eligible products

To download files or maintenance from the Rocket M204 Customer Care area of the Rocket website, you must have a registered Rocket user ID (contact Technical Support if you need an ID). The website 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.

System requirements

• Dictionary/204 operates in a Model 204 Online region.

  In the rest of this document, "Online" refers to a region of Model 204 running an ONLINE load module containing Version 7.5 or higher

User privileges

The installing user must have:

• Update access to the JCL or EXECs that bring up the host Online.
• System Manager privileges, as well as access to all of the Dictionary/204 subsystems and the JCL or EXEC that runs the Online Model 204 region.

New Install or Reinstall

• Sites that have never installed Dictionary/204 must use the New installation, as there are a number of files to allocate and Model 204 parameters to update.
• Sites that are re-installing the latest version of Dictionary/204 may use the "Reinstall (DDRINST)" for existing Dictionary/204 sites or the New installation"New install (DDINST)" for new Dictionary/204 sites to create a new set of Dictionary/204 files.
• If you are upgrading from a previous version or maintenance level, your site already has the Dictionary files which contain information on the customers environment.

A "New install" for customers who have never installed Dictionary/204

You can verify the Dictionary/204 version in the title of any Dictionary/204 screen. Here are the "Install" steps:

1. In the Rocket M204 Customer Care page of the Rocket website, select the "Download Dictionary/204 files" link in the "Downloads and Uploads" section to access the "Dictionary/204 files for Rocket Software Inc." page.
2. Download the latest version of the M204PROC file (which is labeled "All Dictionary/204 products in one file" followed by a version number).
3. Verify that the Online in which you are installing contains a version of Model204 equal to or greater than the Dictionary/204 version.
4. Restore the M204PROC file into a 6000-page file on your mainframe. The DDNAME for this file in your Model 204 regions is also M204PROC.
5. Download and restore the Dictionary/204 supporting files.

METADATA	400 pages.
DATALINK	400 pages.
M204TEMP	150 pages
D204RPT	110 pages
D204SYS	400 pages
M204DCTL	100 pages

6. In file M204PROC, run the procedure DICN.DDINST to install the downloaded release.

The Dictionary/204 APSYs can be set to AUTOSTART if you like.

A "Reinstall" for existing Dictionary/204 sites

You can verify the Dictionary/204 version either in the title of any Dictionary/204 screen. Here are the "ReInstall" steps:

1. In the Rocket M204 Customer Care page of the Rocket website, select the "Download Dictionary/204 files" link in the "Downloads and Uploads" section to access the "Dictionary/204 files for Rocket Software Inc." page.
2. Download the latest version of the M204PROC file (which is labeled "All Dictionary/204 products in one file" followed by a version number).
3. Verify that the Online in which you are installing contains a version of Model204 equal to or greater than the Dictionary/204 version.
4. Restore the M204PROC file into a 6000-page file on your mainframe. The DDNAME for this file in your Model 204 regions is also M204PROC.

   If you are upgrading from a previous release, simply overlay your old M204PROC file.

   In file M204PROC, run the procedure DICN.DDRINST to install the downloaded release.

The Dictionary/204 APSYs can be set to AUTOSTART if you like.

Installing Dictionary/204 under CMS

This section gives instructions for installing Dictionary/204 under CMS, including general system and software requirements. It assumes you have reviewed Preparing for Dictionary/204 installation for details about Dictionary/204 system requirements.

The M204PROC Model 204 file, which contains the SOUL code that runs Dictionary/204, can be obtained from the Rocket website.

File name	Contents
Metadata	File required for the installation of Dictionary/204.
Datalink	File required for the installation of Dictionary/204.
M204temp	File required for the installation of Dictionary/204.
D204rpt	File required for the installation of Dictionary/204.
D204sys	File required for the installation of Dictionary/204.
M204dctl	File required for the installation of Dictionary/204.

Installation steps:

1. Allocate space for the Dictionary/204 files, and restore them from the dump files downloaded from the Rocket website:
   1. Define and format a minidisk to hold the Dictionary/204 installation files. 3400 4096-byte CMS blocks should be sufficient in all cases. This requires a 44-cylinder CMS minidisk on a 3390.
   2. Load the files appropriate to your site with the VMFPLC2 LOAD command. This can be done most simply with the following sequence of commands:

      TAPE REW VMFPLC2 LOAD (EOT

   3. Allocate space for the required Model 204 data sets. A skeleton exec, ULSPFAL, is provided for this purpose. Modify this exec to perform the allocations on the appropriate minidisks. Allocate space for the following data sets:

      M204PROC	6000 pages; must always be allocated.
      Metadata	400 pages; must always be allocated.
      Datalink	400 pages; must always be allocated.
      M204temp	150 pages; must always be allocated.
      D204rpt	110 pages; must always be allocated.
      D204sys	400 pages; must always be allocated.
      M204dctl	100 pages; must always be allocated.

      Attention: If you are upgrading from a previous release, keep your old copy of all Dictionary/204 files.

      The installation process uses these files to determine whether to perform upgrade actions or new-installation actions.

   4. Restore the M204PROC file with the LOADPROC exec.

      To restore, customize the FILEDEF inside the LOADPROC exec to conform to local standards. In addition, modify LOADPROC CCAIN to contain a valid login ID and password. If, for example, you are using the SIRIUS file for the first time, make sure it is created, opened, and initialized before the RESTORE.

      To run the LOADPROC exec, make sure the Online execs and load modules are on an accessed disk, then enter this command:

      ONLINE LOADPROC

2. Complete steps 3 through the end in the "Installing Dictionary/204 under MVS" section, below.

Installing Dictionary/204 under MVS

This section gives instructions for installing Dictionary/204 under MVS, including the general system and software requirements. If like most sites, you download products and updates from the Rocket website, see the instructions in A "Reinstall" for existing Dictionary/204 sites.

Installation checklist (MVS)

1. Allocate the space required for the Dictionary/204 files. If you are creating a new M204PROC file from scratch, this will not be a problem. But if you are restoring into your existing M204PROC file, you will have to CREATE the file first (to wipe out existing content) before you execute the RESTORE. The command sequence is something like:

   CREATE FILE M204PROC END CREATE OPEN FILE M204PROC IN M024PROC RESTORE 192 FROM <whatever>

   M204PROC	6000 pages
   METADATA	400 pages
   DATALINK	400 pages
   M204TEMP	150 pages
   D204RPT	110 pages
   D204SYS	400 pages
   M204DCTL	100 pages

   Attention: If you are upgrading from a previous release, keep your old copies of Dictionary/204 files. The installation process uses these files to determine whether to perform upgrade actions or new-installation actions.

2. Restore M204PROC, noting the following:
   • Rename database DSNs to conform to local standards.
   • Provide a valid logon ID and password for the CCAIN stream for this job. If, for example, you are using the M204PROC file for the first time, make sure it is created, opened, and initialized before the RESTORE.
3. Update the Online JCL or EXEC:
   1. Add DD (MVS) cards or FILEDEFs (CMS) for the Dictionary/204 files. The following list identifies the files for which DD cards or FILEDEFs may be needed:

      M204PROC
      METADATA
      DATALINK
      M204TEMP
      M204DCTL
      D204SYS
      D204RPT

4. Verify that the Online environment allows the use of file groups and APSY subsystems.
   • To use permanent file groups, the Online must have allocated an initialized CCAGRP file, and the SYSOPT parameter must contain the 2 bit.
   • To use APSYs, an Online must have allocated an initialized CCASYS file (with all fields defined), and the SYSOPT parameter must contain the 1 bit.

     For more information about APSYs and file groups, see File groups and System requirements for Application Subsystems.

5. Modify the User 0 stream.

   Adjust these parameters:

   NFILES	Increase by the number of Dictionary/204 files.
   NDCBS	Increase by the number of Dictionary/204 files.
   NDIR	Increase by the number of Dictionary/204 files.
   NORQS	Verify setting is at least 5.

6. Start the Model 204 Online region, verifying that it points to a load module containing the Sirius Mods.
7. Issue OPEN FILE M204PROC (no password is required), and execute the following command:

   INCLUDE DICN.DDRINST

   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.

   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.

8. Add users to the appropriate SCLASSes for any private or semi-public Dictionary/204 APSYs.

   The installing user is automatically added to the administration SCLASS in all Dictionary/204 APSYs.

9. Verify the installation of the subsystem(s) by compiling all of the subsystems.

   Enter ...	To test the ...
   START SUBSYS DICTIONARY	DICTIONARY MENU
   START SUBSYS DICTADMIN	DICTIONARY ADMINISTRATION
   START SUBSYS DOCUMENT	Documentation environment
   START SUBSYS FILEMGMT	File building tool
   START SUBSYS SUBSYSMGMT	Defining APSY subsystems
   START SUBSYS DICTREPORT	Dictionary report subsystem
   START SUBSYS XREF	Cross reference reporting subsystem

   If any of these subsystems fails to compile, ensure that the subsystem is STOPped, and run it under TEST DEBUG mode. For example, to determine why DICTIONARY failed to compile, enter:

   TEST DEBUG DICTIONARY

10. This step is optional. Modify the online input stream so User 0 initializes (compiles) the UL/SPF subsystems. Do this by placing one or more of the following in User 0's input stream:

    START SUBSYS DICTIONARY START SUBSYS DOCUMENT START SUBSYS DICTADMIN START SUBSYS FILEMGMT START SUBSYS SUBSYSMGMT START SUBSYS DICTREPORT START SUBSYS XREF START SUBSYSTEM ULSPF

    This ensures that the subsystems are started for non-administrative users, and it shifts the overhead of compilation to a non-peak computing period.

11. Review the Dictionary/204 server size and additional customization section, below, for specific requirements of individual APSY components of Dictionary/204.

Note: CCATEMP usage may increase with Dictionary/204. CCATEMP should be monitored (VIEW TEMPSIZE, VIEW TEMPMAX) to ensure that sufficient space is allocated to accommodate the additional activity.

Dictionary/204 server size and additional customization

The minimum Dictionary/204 server size requirements are listed below. The actual server size requirements may vary slightly, because of table settings in the local Online Model 204 regions, and because of slight differences between UTABLE requirements in different versions of Model 204.

Subsystem name	Minimum server
DICTIONARY	180K
DOCUMENT	180K
DICTADMIN	230K
FILEMGMT	380K
SUBSYSMGMT	135K
DICTREPORT	150K
XREF	135K
