This document covers the following topics:
Installation and system prerequisites for z/VSE and other EntireX platforms are described centrally. See Prerequisites. For communication using Entire Net-Work, Adabas SVC is required (delivered on medium in library WAL826.LIBR). See your Adabas documentation for details.
See also Administering Broker Stubs under z/VSE.
The installation medium contains the following base files for z/VSE:
| File | Library | Sublibrary | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| EXP960.LIBR | SAGLIB | EXP960 | RPC Server sublibrary. |
| EXX960.LIBR | SAGLIB | EXX960 | EntireX sublibrary. |
| EXX960.LICS | License file. | ||
| EXX960.DC01 | Readme file. | ||
| WAL826.LIBR | SAGLIB | WAL826 | WAL sublibrary. |
| MLC127.LIBR | SAGLIB | MLC127 | MLC sublibrary. |
Perform the following steps to migrate from EntireX version 7.2.3:
New functionality in EntireX version 9.6 led to changes and enhancements of various Broker attributes.
This requires the attribute file to be brought up-to-date.
A sample attribute file is delivered in EXX960.LIBR(ETBnnn.ATR), which you can use as a basis.
If, for example, dynamic memory management is turned on (default and recommended), all NUM-* parameters can be omitted.
See Broker-specific Attributes.
Ensure the correct license file is referenced in your EntireX Broker startup job control.
A sample startup job control is delivered in EXX960.LIBR(RUNETB.J).
Although existing applications will still run after the migration of EntireX Broker, they should be relinked or replaced, if dynamically loaded, with stubs from version 9.6. See also Administering Broker Stubs under z/VSE.
