Installing on BS2000

Start of instruction setTo install AOS on a BS2000 system:

  1. 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.

  2. Link the module AOSASM to the (shared) Natural nucleus.

  3. Perform a Natural INPL.

    The tape containing Adabas contains an INPL-formatted data set in Natural version 4.1 or above. The programs for AOS are stored in library SYSAOS. Verify you have handled the requirements regarding the INPL-formatted data set, as described in Installation Requirement.

  4. Locate module ADAAOS in the AOSvrs load (module) library, (where vrs is a number representing the version of Adabas). Make this module available to your Adabas nucleus either by copying it to the ADAvrs load (module) library or, using BLSLIBs, concatenate it with the ADAvrs load library in the nucleus startup job.

  5. Load the AOS error messages using the Natural utility ERRLODUS.

    The error messages are stored in an ERRN-formatted data set included on the tape.

    See the Natural Utilities documentation for information about the ERRLODUS utility.

  6. Finally, execute AOS by logging on to the application library SYSAOS and entering the command MENU.
