Menus

This section describes the types of menus provided by SMA, and also how to select and sort objects within object menus.

Menu Types

SMA provides two types of menus:

  • Function Menus. These present a selection list of possible functions. You can select a function by entering the appropriate letter in the command line at the bottom of the screen.

  • Object Menus. These present a list of objects. You can select one of these objects and the function to be performed for this object by entering a command next to the selected object.

Selecting and Sorting Objects within Object Menus

Each object menu provides an input line directly underneath the column headers. You can use this line to position the object list to a specific value, and also to limit the number of objects to be displayed.

Selecting Objects

Using the above screen as an example, the following input could be provided in the input line for the column Environment:

Value Result
PROD1 Environment with the name PROD1 will be displayed.
PR* Environments with a name which begins with PR will be displayed.
PR> Environments with a name which is equal or greater than PR will be displayed.
PR< Environments with a name which is equal or less than PR will be displayed.
*TEST Environments with a name which ends with TEST will be displayed.
PR*1 Environments with a name which begins with PR and ends with 1 will be displayed.
*PR*1 Environments with a name which contains PR and ends with 1 will be displayed.

Selecting Objects using Multiple Selection Criteria

You can also use the input line to enter multiple criteria for the selection of objects. For example, as shown in the screen below, if the value PROD* is entered for Environment and the value *1 is entered for Description, only those environments which have a name which begins with PROD and which have a description which contains the value 1 will be displayed.

Command Description
A Administration. Administrative functions are available to specify global parameters, and to remove unused tapes and/or products from an SMA system file.
E Environments. You can use this function to describe the environments where Software AG products are installed or are to be installed. This description consists of the products to be installed, various install parameters (SVC number, data set names, etc.) and possibly locally-adapted and generated JCL. The JCL generation for a specified environment is also started within this function.
L Load SMA Table. This function is used to load SMA tables into the SMA system file.
R Reports. This function can be used to create various reports.
T Datasets on Tapes. After receiving an installation tape from Software AG, you should load the control data from the tape into SMA using a batch mode job. The T function can then be used to display information for the tape as well as the products and data sets contained on the tape. This function can also be used to control the copying of data sets from tape to disk.
Z Library Corrections. Zaps and other corrections which were delivered on an installation tape can be applied or removed using SMA. This provides the required control of Zap application as well as documentation about where and when corrections have been applied.

The following commands are available:

Command Description
CH Check Environment. SMA will execute a number of checks to detect incorrect specifications. For example, an error will be detected if a product which has Natural as a prerequisite is marked to be installed, but Natural is neither installed nor marked to be installed. Although many checks are performed, it is not possible to detect every inconsistency of parameter values.
CJ Copy Environment Jobs. All jobs in this environment will be copied. You can specify a new name for the job group and assign a common prefix for the job names.
CL Clone Environment. A new environment will be created by copying an existing environment. You are prompted for a short descriptive text for the new environment. The first line of this description will be used in the display list of all environments. The following parts of the environment are copied:
  • old and new values of all parameters

  • JCL skeletons, if the existing environment is not a default environment

  • list of all available products with the same status

CO Copy Environment. A new environment will be created by copying an existing environment. You will be prompted for a short descriptive text for the environment. The first line of this description will be used in the display list of all environments.

The following parts of the environment are copied:

  • old and new values of all parameters

  • JCL skeletons, if the existing environment is not a default environment

  • list of all available products, with the status of the products set to not installed

DE Delete Environment. The environment will be deleted.

Note:
Only SMA-internal data is deleted; no other files are effected, i.e., there is no de-install feature in SMA.

Note:
A default environment cannot be deleted.

IP Install Products. See section Install Products.
JB JCL Generation in batch mode. The environment will be checked and if no errors are detected, the job for generating JCL in batch mode will be submitted. See section JCL Generation for a description of this process. If an error is detected, it can be corrected using the MO command.

Note:
This function is not available on BS2000/OSD. On BS2000/OSD, the SMA JCL generation is always executed in Natural batch mode. If the JCL generation is started online (under TIAM or UTM) SMA submits a batch job which performs the generation.

JC JCL Generation. The online-mode JCL Generator will be started. See section JCL Generation for a description of this process. If an error is detected, it can be corrected using the MO command.
JO Generated Jobs. The Generated Jobs screen for the current environment will be displayed. See section Working with Generated Jobs.
MG Modify Parameter by Group. See section Modify Parameters.
MO Modify Environment. See section Modifying an Environment.
MP Modify Parameter by Name. See section Modify Parameters.
MS Modify JCL Skeleton. See section Modify JCL Skeletons.
RN Rename Environment. A new name will be given to the environment.
RP Report Environment. A report will be created for the environment. The report will contain the following information:
  • description of this environment

  • list of products which have been installed or are to be installed in this environment

  • list of JCL skeleton which has been modified for this environment

  • list of install parameters and parameter values for this environment

SA Saved Environment Jobs. The Saved Jobs for Environment menu will be displayed in order to process the saved jobs whose group name is an environment name.
SE Set Installed. The following status information will be reset:
  • all products which have the status to be installed are marked as installed

  • old parameter values are replaced by new values, if specified

  • the status of linked modules which have been changed by the SMA Library Correction function is reset from to be relinked to ok

This function is useful in two situations:

  • after describing an existing environment, you can use this function to document that the products in this environment are already installed

  • the last job generated during JCL generation executes this function in batch mode. Instead of using this job, you may execute this function in dialog mode after successful execution of all generated jobs (except the last one).

TE Text Description. The descriptive text for this environment is to be modified. A window will appear with four input lines. These lines can be used to provide a brief textual description of the environment. These lines will then appear in the SMA environment reports. The first line of text will also be displayed in the Environment Maintenance screen.
ZA Apply Zap. A list of corrections for products with status installed or to be installed will be displayed.

JCL Generation

The JCL Generator is activated using the line command JC from the Environment Maintenance screen. JCL generation in dialog mode consists of the following steps:

  1. The JCL Generator first evaluates which parameter values are new and what products are marked as to be installed, and produces a list of all installation steps required.

    Note:
    This step can require a large amount of control data to be evaluated, and therefore may require a considerable amount of time for completion.

  2. The Installation Guide for the generated jobs and steps is displayed. This list can be printed by pressing PF9. The printout will be useful as a checklist when submitting the generated jobs for execution.

    By pressing Enter, the next page of this report can be displayed. PF6 can be used to skip the display and continue with JCL generation.

  3. JCL generation starts. The job and step number currently being generated are displayed at the bottom of the screen.

Note:
If Enter or a PF key is pressed during this process, an error may occur, and JCL generation will be interrupted.

After JCL generation has been completed, the number of errors detected during the generation is displayed. If this number is not equal to 0, you should check whether or not a user modification of a JCL skeleton caused an error. If not, Software AG support personnel should be contacted.

Working with Generated Jobs

If the function JO is entered in the Environment Maintenance screen after JCL generation has been performed, the list of all generated jobs will be displayed.

The following commands are available:

Command Description
CO Copy Job. Jobs for an environment must be deleted before the next JCL generation. If you wish to keep a copy of the job (as an example or for later usage), you can use the CO command to copy the job. SMA will prompt for a new name and job group. The Saved Jobs function of the Administration Menu can be used to locate/process a copied job.
DE Delete Job. The generated job will be deleted. Normally, you should delete generated jobs only after successful execution of all jobs.
DI Display Job. The job will be displayed.
EX Export Job to PC File. Work file 7 must be defined for the PC file.
MO Display/Modify Job. The generated job will be displayed. You can browse through the generated job, using PF7 and PF8 to scroll backwards and forwards, print the job, or modify it before submitting it to the operating system for execution. Usage of the editor is explained in the section Editor Commands.

Note:
SMA is designed to make changes in the generated jobs unnecessary. If frequent changes of the jobs are required, the job skeletons which are used during JCL generation should be changed. Refer to JCL Skeletons or the appropriate report to determine which skeletons are involved.

PR Print Job. The job will be printed.
RN Rename Job. The job will be renamed using the specified name.
SU Submit Job. The generated job will be submitted to the operating system for execution. Within SMA, a job can have the status:
  • Open: The job has been generated and has not yet been submitted

  • Submitted: The job has been submitted. It is possible to submit a job, change it and re-submit it.

    Note:
    The order of submitting the generated jobs is checked by SMA. If jobs are not submitted in the correct sequence, a warning message will be issued.

The successful execution of a submitted job is not checked by SMA.

TE Modify Text Description. The text description for the job will be modified.

IN Install. The product will receive the status to be installed. Each product which has this status will be processed by the next JCL generation for this environment.
RE Reset Status. The status to be installed will be removed. This command can be used if the INSTALL command has been issued inadvertently.
RM Readme Text. The Readme text for the product will be displayed.
RP Product Report. A product report will be displayed which contains the following information:
  • environments in which the product is installed or to be installed

  • data sets which belong to the product and the volume serial number of the installation tape

  • job/steps used to install the product

UN Uninstall. The status installed will be set to "-" (not installed).

Note:
No JCL to uninstall a product is generated. This command only causes the status to be changed in the SMA system file, and has no other effect.

Modify Parameters

This function can be used to modify the install parameters to be used when generating JCL.

Any new value specified will be used during the next JCL generation, and will replace the installed value with the next SET INSTALLED command.

JCL skeletons are used during JCL generation to expand the installation steps into executable JCL. These JCL skeletons are supplied by Software AG but may be modified by the SMA user. Modifications of JCL skeletons in the default environment are valid for all other environments, whereas modifications of a JCL skeleton in a user environment are valid for that environment only.

Refer to the section JCL Skeletons for a further explanation of JCL skeletons.

The following commands may be used:

Command Description
CO Copy Skeleton. The skeleton will be copied.
DE Delete Skeleton. The skeleton will be deleted.
DI Display Skeleton. The skeleton will be displayed.
EX Export Skeleton. The skeleton will be exported to a PC File. Work file 7 must be defined for the PC file.
MO Modify Skeleton. The skeleton is to be modified using editor commands. See below for more information.
PR Print Skeleton. The skeleton will be printed.
RP Report Skeleton. A report will be displayed which shows the environments in which this modified skeleton is used.

Using Editor Commands to Modify the Skeleton

If the command MO is entered on the Modify JCL Skeletons screen, the editor for modifying the JCL Skeleton will be invoked and the skeleton will be displayed for editing purposes:

Editor commands are described in the section Editor Commands.

Note:
Use the character "," as the escape character for line commands. Use PF11 to shift the screen to the right to view line conditions. Use PF10 to shift back (toggle effect).

The following data set parameters which are used when copying data sets from tape to disk may be changed:

  • Library Group

  • Name on Disk

    Note:
    SMA uses Name on Disk to determine whether or not the data set resides on disk. A blank name indicates that the data set is currently not available on disk.

  • Disk where the data set is stored

  • Device Type of this disk

If the data set has been marked to be copied, SMA will use default values for the above fields if they are blank.

Library Corrections

This function is used to apply corrections (Zaps, source changes, module replacements) to the Software AG product libraries.

Library Selection

If function Z is chosen in the SMA Main Menu, a list of all library groups will be displayed.

DI Display Job. The job will be displayed.
EX Export Job to PC File. Work file 7 must be defined for the PC file.
MO Modify Job. The generated correction job will be displayed for modification. You can browse through the generated job, using PF7 and PF8 to scroll backwards and forwards, print the job, or modify it before submitting it to the operating system for execution. Usage of the editor for modification is explained in the section Editor Commands.

Note:
SMA is designed to make changes in the generated jobs unnecessary. If frequent changes of the jobs are required, the job skeletons which are used during JCL generation should be changed. Refer to JCL Skeletons or the appropriate report to determine which skeletons are involved.

PR Print Job. The selected job will be printed.
RN Rename Job. The job will be renamed using the specified name.
SU Submit Job. The generated job will be submitted to the operating system for execution. Within SMA, a job can have the status:
  • Open: the job has been generated and has not yet been submitted

  • Submitted: the job has been submitted. It is possible to submit a job, change it and re-submit it.

The successful execution of a submitted job is not checked by SMA.

TE Modify Text Description. The text description for the job will be modified.
