This document describes the steps for installing Natural Security (product code NSC) on z/VSE.
For information on the features and functions provided by Natural Security, see the Natural Security documentation.
When used in this document, the notation
vrs or
vr represents the relevant product
version (see also Version in the
Glossary).
See General Prerequisites and System Support in the section Overview of the Installation Process.
In addition to the prerequisites referred to above, the following software must be installed to use Natural Security in a heterogeneous environment:
Entire Net-Work
Natural Security for Mainframes
The following software must be installed as required:
Natural Security for UNIX
Natural Security for Windows
Natural Security for OpenVMS
For further information, see Using Natural Security on Multiple Platforms in the Natural Security documentation.
The installation medium contains the following data sets required for product installation:
| Data Set Name | Contents |
|---|---|
NSCvrs.SYSL |
Natural Security log file |
NSCvrs.INPL |
Natural objects |
NSCvrs.VINI
|
Natural Security FDIC initialization file for VSAM
system files
|
Copy the data sets into your environment as described in Copying Data Sets to a z/VSE Disk in the section Installing Natural.
Sample installation jobs are contained in the NATvrs.LIBJ data set
and are prefixed with the product code. The data set is provided on the
installation medium supplied for base Natural.
Be sure to read Installation Process and Major Natural Features before you start the installation procedure.
When you repeat a Natural Security installation, only the Natural
objects are replaced; the Natural Security data defined for SYSSEC
and DBA is not reset to the values defined after the
initial installation. You can use the
function of the Natural
INPL utility to reset
the data.
This section describes the actual installation steps:
(Job I050, Step 9900)
Skip this step if you want to use an existing Natural FSEC
system file.
Skip this step if you want to load the FSEC
system file into a VSAM file system. In this case, refer to
Installing Natural for
VSAM. See also
Natural for VSAM with
Natural Security in the Database Management
System Interfaces documentation for restrictions on the use of the
FSEC system file in a VSAM environment.
Load the new Natural FSEC system file definition:
Set the System Maintenance Aid (SMA) parameter
NSC-FIRST-INSTALL to Y (Yes). This is the default
setting.
Specify the database ID and file number of the Adabas file where to
load the FSEC system file by using the Adabas ADALOD utility.
In addition, you must specify this database ID and file number in the Natural parameter module as described in Step 4: Build the Natural Parameter Module.
Load the FSEC system file definition contained in the
NATvrs.SYSF data set by using the
Adabas ADALOD utility.
The following ADALOD utility parameter must not be changed:
ISNREUSE=YES
(Job I050, Step 9901)
This step only applies if Adabas is installed and if the Natural Security function (see the Natural Security documentation) is to be used. It creates the log file to be used by the function.
Load the log file by using the Adabas ADALOD utility. Input for
ADALOD is the NSCvrs.SYSL
data set.
(Job I050, Step 9902)
This step only applies if Adabas is installed and if the Natural Security function (see the Natural Security documentation) is to be used. It creates the logon and error log file to be used by the function.
Load the logon and error log file by using the Adabas ADALOD utility.
Input for ADALOD is the NATvrs.SYSF
data set.
(Jobs I060, I080)
Specify the following profile parameter in your Natural parameter module:
FSEC=(database-id,file-number)
where database-id and
file-number are the database ID and
file number of either the new FSEC system file loaded in
Step 1 or your existing
FSEC system file.
The FSEC
profile parameter is described in the Parameter Reference
documentation.
Repeat Job I080 for all your TP monitors.
Assemble and link your Natural parameter module.
(Job I061, Step 0102 or Step 9905)
- For the migration installation (Step 0102):
Set the System Maintenance Aid (SMA) parameter
NSC-FIRST-INSTALLtoN(No). The default setting isY(Yes).Load the Natural objects specific to Natural Security from the
NSCvrs.INPLdata set into the appropriate Natural libraries in yourFNATsystem file by using the Natural INPL utility.Once this step has been performed, it is not possible to remove Natural Security from the Natural system file; to remove Natural Security from the system file, you would have to delete the entire contents of the system file and reinstall all Natural components again.
- For the initial installation (Step 9905):
Set the System Maintenance Aid (SMA) parameter
NSC-FIRST-INSTALLtoY(Yes).Load the Natural objects specific to Natural Security from the
NSCvrs.INPLdata set into the appropriate Natural libraries in yourFNATsystem file by using the Natural INPL utility.When you load the contents of the
NSCvrs.INPLdata set for the first time, this step creates the following security profiles and relationships:
A library security profile with the library ID
SYSSEC. The library is people-protected ( set toYand set toN).A user security profile with the user ID
DBA, the user type Administrator, and the password set toDBA.The user
DBAis linked to the librarySYSSEC(ordinary link, no special link).
Natural Security is operational after Step 5: Load New Natural Objects of the Installation Procedure has been completed successfully.
For the initial installation, proceed as described in the section First Steps After the Installation in the Natural Security documentation. If you upgrade from a previous Natural Security version, you can skip the steps described in this section.
