Setting up the ADCD package
Before you configure Z instances, set up the ADCD package.
When you run the installer, a non-root user ID (ibmsys1) is created. The user ID is required to enable the z/OS® images. You can also create other non-root user IDs.
To set up the ADCD package, complete the following steps:
- Switch to the non-root user ID (ibmsys1).
- Create a folder that is named volumes under /home/ibmsys1, and keep all ADCD volumes in the non-root user directory that you downloaded at step 2 of Checklist.
- Decompress all .gz volumes by using the Linux®
command.
gunzip *.gz
- Set the environment variables by using the following command.
export PATH=/usr/z1090/bin:$PATH export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/z1090/bin:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH export MANPATH=/usr/z1090/man:$MANPATH ulimit -c unlimited ulimit -d unlimited
- Decrypt .ZPD volumes by using the command from
/usr/z1090/bin:
./Z1091_ADCD_install <path of volume>/C4RES1.ZPD <output path of volume>/C4RES1
For example:./Z1091_ADCD_install /home/ibmsys1/volumes/C4RES1.ZPD /home/ibmsys1/volumes/C4RES1
- Make sure that all volumes are owned by the non-root user ID. You can use the following command
to change the owner and group.
chown ibmsys1 * chgrp zpdt *
Note: Make sure that the folder that contains *.gz and .ZPD volumes are also owned by the non-root user ID. - Make sure that all volumes are executable. Otherwise, enter the following
command:
chmod 755 *
