Installation Data Sets
In addition, subsystem characteristics must be similar for all of the DB2
subsystems in the multiple SSID model. Installation parameters for
subsequent subsystems cannot differ significantly from the initial installation
process. However, the following installation information can differ between
subsystems:
• job card information
• library name for the generated batch jobs
• DB2 LOAD and EXIT library names
• authorized program facility (APF) library name
• DOPTs names (only for BMC Software administrative products)
• STOGROUP names
• VSAM catalog (VCAT) names (including VCAT volume and DASD
type)
Name Propagation
You can easily propagate the names for multiple subsystem installations if
the name or part of the name differs only by the DB2 SSID. To propagate a
name that includes the SSID, substitute the special identifier $$$$ for that
part of the name that represents the SSID during the initial Full or SSID
installation. During the subsequent Multiple SSID installation process, the
Install System replaces the special identifier with the correct SSID when it
generates the installation batch jobs.
Note: If the DB2 subsystems differ in characteristics that are outside the
scope of the Multiple SSID installation process, you must perform a
standard SSID installation for each subsystem, using a new
installation user profile.
Installation Data Sets
The Install System creates the following data sets prior to creating the data
sets for the BMC Software products:
• HLQ.INSTALL library
• HLQ.INSTALL.LOAD load library
• User-named output JCL data set
Note: You can create as many user-named output JCL data sets as you want
by rerunning the Install System.
