Install Verification Steps

Go through the following procedures to test drive these libraries and decide which pieces you want to use in your shop. Before proceeding you should have run the $INSTALL job to change the HLQ used in the various libraries. You should perform these steps before proceeding to the steps in the $INSTAL2 member.

• Review member ISPF in MA133.TSO.LOGON.PARMLIB to make sure the ISPF libs refered to are correct.
• Return to the READY prompt in TSO, and enter "EX 'MA133.TSO.LOGON(CATLIBS)'" This should start up a new ISPF session with these libraries allocated.
• Enter "FJ SAMPJOB" to find the sample job from SAMPLIB. This will test the find job command.
• While you are viewing SAMPJOB, enter ">FP" on the command line, and place your cursor on the SAMPPROC proclib. This should find the sample proc from SAMPLIB. Notice how it resolved the JCLLIB proc library.
• While you are viewing SAMPPROC, enter ">FD" on the command line, and place your cursor on the "DSN=&HLQ..SAMPLIB" statement. This should find the dataset MA133.TSO.SAMPLIB. Notice how it performed symbolic substitution on the dataset name.
• Enter "FR FR" to see if the find rexx program can find itself.
• End from the various nested views. If you have CA-JCLCHECK installed, edit MA133.TSO.SYSEXEC(NJCHECK) and review the CA-JCLCHECK parms to ensure they reflect your environment. Once satisfied, enter "NJ SAMPJOB". If everything works, you will get a series of ISPF panels which break the job down into various views. Hit PF1 to get an explanation of the tables.
• Go to the Search-For application in ISPF (usually 3.14). On the lower right hand corner, ensure that 'Output Mode' is set to 'View'. Search a library for a string you know exists. On the search results list, enter 'KEYS' and set an available PFKEY to 'SRCHGO'. Enter this PFKEY on any of the search results lines. This should view the dataset on the correct line. See the SRCHGO exec for more.
• Enter 'SS DSL' to get a dataset list screen using the STARTUP exec. Enter 'SS PROC1' to edit 'SYS1.PROCLIB'. Enter 'SS' by itself to see your ISPF sessions. Exit that screen and enter 'SS DSL' to return to the dataset list screen. Enter 'SS /' to view your shortcut table. See the end of the STARTUP exec for more details.
• Proceed to the $INSTAL2 member to complete the install.
