Adabas SQL Gateway requires that:
The Adabas database product be installed.
The target system be set up to support TCP/IP communications (OE stack).
The TCP/IP started task must be running.
Read/write FTP access be configured and available on the target system for at least one TSO user ID for installation only.
OSS segment must be defined for the user ID in a security system (RACF / ACF2 / Top Secret) or it must be available by default.
Adabas SQL Gateway is a reentrant application which executes as a started task or a batch job. During installation, the CONNX Adabas server program must be linked with the reentrant version of the Adabas batch/TSO link routine (ADALNKR). Please see the appropriate Adabas documentation for more information on ADALNKR.
Before submitting the CONNX installation job, please check with your systems programmer or Adabas administrator to ensure that the ADALNKR load module exists in a load library which can be link-edited with the Adabas SQL Gateway object code.
Verifying TCP/IP Connectivity
Before you install CONNX on your Adabas server, Software AG recommends that you verify the TCP/IP connectivity to your OS/390 z/OS system. To verify connectivity, use ping hostname, where hostname is the TCP/IP symbolic address or dotted numeric address.
