INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR HOT FIX F9BA07 ON Z/OS BEFORE DOWNLOADING: Hot fix F9BA07 addresses the issue(s) in SAS 9.2 (9.2 TS1M0) of Base SAS software on z/OS as documented in the "Issue(s) Addressed" section of the hot fix download page: http://ftp.sas.com/techsup/download/hotfix/f9_sbcs_prod_list.html#f9ba07 The following file(s) will be installed: * f9ba07.xmit CNTL PDS in XMIT format. It contains all of the programs and content necessary to apply the hot fix. IMPORTANT NOTE(S): 1. You must have SAS 9.2 (9.2 TS1M0) installed on your system before applying this hot fix. 2. Technical Support strongly suggests that you verify that you have current backups of all SAS files. 3. All currently active SAS sessions, daemons, spawners and servers must be terminated before applying this hot fix. 4. Before proceeding with STEP 5 of the INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS, insure no 9.2 SAS jobs are running because this step requires exclusive access to the SASHELP library. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS: The following instructions describe the steps for extracting the contents of the downloaded file, moving the files to your z/OS system and installing the hot fix. Please be sure to read the 'ADDITIONAL NOTES' section for situations where additional actions may be required. STEP 1: PRE-ALLOCATE THE XMIT FILE ON Z/OS Pre-allocate a file on z/OS (e.g. 'sas.hotfix.xmit') with the following DCB. Be sure to check the space requirement on the download page: Organization : PS Record format : FB Record length : 80 Block size : 3120 STEP 2: FTP THE XMIT FILE TO Z/OS FTP the XMIT file into this newly created file. This can be done in one of 2 ways: Method 1) Download the packaged hot fix to your PC. The packaged hot fix is a is a self extracting executable. Launching the executable will extract the z/OS files to a default location example: C:\zos\f9ba07os You will be prompted during the extraction process to accept or overwrite the default unzip location. The remaining steps in these installation instructions assume that you have unzipped the files to the default location After extracting the file, FTP the f9ba07os.xmit file to your z/OS system doing a BINARY upload into the preallocated file created in step 1. Method 2) From z/OS, FTP to ftp.sas.com using userid=anonymous and password=your.email@address Once you are logged on, cd into the following directory: /techsup/download/hotfix/vf9/base/f9ba07/mvs Issue the following commands where 'sas.hotfix.xmit' is the filename you created in step 1. binary get f9ba07os.xmit 'sas.hotfix.xmit' (rep quit STEP 3: RECEIVE THE XMIT FILE TO CREATE THE CNTL PDS On z/OS issue a RECEIVE command against the uploaded XMIT file as follows where 'sas.hotfix.xmit' is the preallocated file in step 1. receive indataset('sas.hotfix.xmit') After doing this you will be prompted with something similar to the following: INMR901I Dataset DATA.SET.NAME from USERID on ???????? INMR906A Enter restore parameters or 'DELETE' or 'END' + at this prompt you should enter: DA('sas.hotfix.cntl') ... where sas.hotfix.cntl will be a new PDS that contains all of the parts necessary to apply this hot fix. This PDS will be referred to as the CNTL data set in subsequent instructions. STEP 4: EXECUTE THE REXX EXEC In the CNTL data set is a member named REXX. This member contains a REXX exec that will prompt you for information, then, if applicable, create any new load libraries and, if applicable, generate any JCL required to modify SAS data libraries or USS content in your SAS system. Execute this REXX exec from an ISPF prompt and follow the dialogs: ex 'sas.hotfix.cntl(rexx)' After the exec has built the contents of the hot fix, it will display a dialog telling you exactly what files it created. Please make note of the data sets and/or members that the REXX exec created. Subsequent instructions may or may not be applicable based on what files / members that the REXX exec created. STEP 5: RUN ANY GENERATED JCL If this hot fix contains any updates to SAS data libraries or USS directories, then the REXX exec would have generated new members in the CNTL data set that start with 'JCL', and told you about them in the dialogs. If this is the case, then you will need to run the jobs contained in these members. Be sure to read any comments in the jobs and follow any instructions contained there. Make any site specific modifications to the JCL and then run the job(s). Note that the job(s) may contain output data sets that require DISP=OLD. If that is the case, then you will need to run it at a time when this allocation would be possible. STEP 6: MERGE GENERATED LIBRARIES WITH SAS There are several different types of files that the hot fix may have created. The dialog in the REXX exec told you exactly what it created. If the REXX exec created: * '&prefix.HFF9BA07.LIBRARY' then you will need to replace the like-named modules in your current SAS 9.2 (9.2 TS1M0) installation library with the modules loaded to '&prefix.HFF9BA07.LIBRARY'. We suggest you rename the modules in the current SAS 9.2 (9.2 TS1M0) installation library before replacing, or make a backup copy of the original modules. * '&prefix.HFF9BA07.DBCS.LIBRARY' then you will need to replace the like-named modules in your current SAS 9.2 (9.2 TS1M0) installation DBCS library with the modules loaded to '&prefix.HFF9BA07.DBCS.LIBRARY'. We suggest you rename the modules in the current SAS 9.2 (9.2 TS1M0) installation library before replacing, or make a backup copy of the original modules. * '&prefix.HFF9BA07.SASMSG' then you will need to replace the like-named members in your current SAS 9.2 (9.2 TS1M0) installation SASMSG library with the members loaded to '&prefix.HFF9BA07.SASMSG'. We suggest you rename the members in the current SAS 9.2 (9.2 TS1M0) installation SASMSG library before replacing, or make a backup copy of the original members. * '&prefix.HFF9BA07.AUTOLIB' then you will need to replace the like-named members in your current SAS 9.2 (9.2 TS1M0) installation AUTOLIB library with the members loaded to '&prefix.HFF9BA07.AUTOLIB'. We suggest you rename the members in the current SAS 9.2 (9.2 TS1M0) installation AUTOLIB library before replacing, or make a backup copy of the original members. * '&prefix.HFF9BA07.ITRM.CPMISC' then you will need to replace the like-named members in your current SAS 9.2 (9.2 TS1M0) installation CPMISC library with the members loaded to '&prefix.HFF9BA07.ITSV.CPMISC'. We suggest you rename the members in the current SAS 9.2 (9.2 TS1M0) installation CPMISC library before replacing, or make a backup copy of the original members. ADDITIONAL NOTES: * If the REXX exec created '&prefix.HFF9BA07.LIBRARY' and it contains a SASHOST, SASXAL, or SASXA1 module, and if you set SAS System options by assembling the DEFAULT OPTIONS TABLE using the BAOPTS1 member of the original CNTL data set, then you must re-assemble this table after applying this hot fix. To re-assemble this table do the following: 1) Edit the BAOPTS1 member in the original CNTL data set. 2) Change the SYSLMOD DD in all three LINK EDIT steps to point to the new HLQ.LIBRARY 3) rerun BAOPTS1. * If the REXX exec created a '&prefix.HFF9BA07.LIBRARY' and you run with an entry point of SASLPA then you will need to look in the unloaded library to see if any of the new modules are installed in your LPA. If so, then you will need to replace them with the new modules and refresh LPA. In the configuration guide, the modules recommended for installation in the LPA are: SASXAL SABXSPL SABXDML SABDS SABSCLL SABDBGM SABZPLH SABXGPH Please note that if you use the BNDLSUFX option, you will have to rename the modules appropriately in your LPA. For more information about the LPA bundled configuration and information about using the BNDLSUFX option, please refer to the section entitled "Installing SAS 9.2 Foundation Into The LPA/ELPA" in the "Configuration Guide for SAS 9.2 Foundation for z/OS". This completes the installation of hot fix F9BA07 on Z/OS.
