The delivered ALLINPL file, ADAvrs.ALLINPL (where vrs is a number representing the version number, release number, and system maintenance level of Adabas), contains the Adabas Online System (AOS) base and also functions as a demo.
To use the full version of AOS, you must copy the contents of the AOS version 8.1 load library to the base Adabas version 8.1 (or Adabas 7.4) load library with the REPLACE option to make AOS licensed (otherwise AOS will execute in 'Demo Mode'). This library must be available to the Adabas nucleus. To make it available restart the Adabas nucleus. When allocated to the running Adabas environment, this completes the AOS to make it a licensed copy.
Note:
The AOS load modules can also be made available to Adabas by
concatenating the AOS load library to the Adabas load library in the Adabas
startup JCL.
Finally, execute AOS by logging on to the application library SYSAOS and entering the command MENU."
If you try to run AOS version 8.1 with an earlier version of Adabas 7.1 or 7.2, AOS will function as a demo unless an Adabas ZAP is applied, as follows:
| Adabas Version | ZAP Number |
|---|---|
| 7.1.2 | A$712099 |
| 7.1.3 | A$713099 |
| 7.2.2 | AY722099 |
