Installing WebLogic Java Adapter for Mainframe
After you have reviewed the Preparing to Install BEA WebLogic Java Adapter for Mainframe section, you are ready to begin installing WebLogic JAM. Instructions for installing WebLogic JAM are provided in the following sections:
Locating the Installation Files
Locate the installation files:
If you purchased WebLogic JAM, select the file that corresponds to your system. If you downloaded WebLogic JAM from the Web for evaluation, only the file you requested will be downloaded.
Installing the WebLogic JAM Gateway
Determine the platform on which you will install the WebLogic JAM Gateway. The Gateway can be installed in the following ways:
Graphical-mode installation is the graphics-based method of executing the BEA installation program. It can be run on Microsoft Windows and Unix systems.
To run Graphical-mode installation, the console attached to the machine on which you are installing the software must support a Java-based GUI. All consoles for Microsoft Windows systems support Java-based GUIs, but not all consoles for Unix systems do.
Console-mode installation is the text-based method of executing the BEA installation program. It can be run only on Unix systems and is intended for Unix systems with non-graphic consoles.
Installing the WebLogic JAM Gateway Using Graphical-Mode Installation
Graphical-mode installation of WebLogic JAM may be used on Microsoft Windows or Unix systems. This installation will install the WebLogic JAM Gateway and the files for the installation of the CRM.
Prepare to Install the WebLogic JAM Gateway
To prepare to install the WebLogic JAM Gateway using the graphical mode, complete the steps in the following section that correspond to your platform.
On Microsoft Windows Platforms
Prepare to install the WebLogic JAM Gateway on Microsoft Windows platforms by completing the following steps:
java -version
The InstallAnywhere screen displays. Continue with the installation of the WebLogic JAM Gateway by completing the steps in the Install WebLogic JAM Gateway section.
On Unix Platforms
Prepare to install the WebLogic JAM Gateway on Unix in graphical mode by completing the following steps:
java -version
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/bea/jdk131_02
export PATH=/usr/bea/jdk131_02/bin:$PATH
export DISPLAY=xx.xx.xx.xx:0.0
sh wljam51_Unix.bin
Install WebLogic JAM Gateway
After the InstallAnywhere screen displays, the BEA WebLogic Java Adapter for Mainframe splash screen displays, followed by the Introduction screen.
You can have several BEA Home directories, but products that are dependent on each other must be installed in the same BEA Home directory. For example, any BEA Home directory containing WebLogic JAM must also contain WebLogic Server.
If you already have WebLogic JAM installed in the BEA Home directory you have selected, the installation program will notify you. You can choose to continue installing WebLogic JAM into the same directory, but the new installation will overwrite existing patches and configuration files.
Installing the WebLogic JAM Gateway on Unix Systems Using Console-Mode Installation
To install the WebLogic JAM Gateway and the files for the installation of the CRM on Unix systems using the console-mode installation, run the BEA standard installation shell script for the platform on which you want to install WebLogic JAM. Select the following script:
wljam51_Unix.bin
To install WebLogic JAM on a Unix system using console mode, perform the following steps:
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/bea/jdk131_02
export PATH=/usr/bea/jdk131_02/bin:$PATH
sh wljam51_Unix.bin -i console

Note: The single-dash bar just beneath the double-dash bar in Listing 3-1 is a progress indicator. When the single-dash bar becomes the same length as the double-dash bar, installation is complete.
Installing the CRM
Installation files for the CRM are placed in the <BEA_HOME>/<JAM_INSTALL_DIR>/Mainframe directory during the installation process based on your selection of the install set. To install the CRM, use FTP to send the CRM files to the mainframe and run the specific install procedure for that platform. The following sections provide installation instruction for supported platforms.
Note: The mainframe, CICS, and IMS do not need to be restarted for a WebLogic JAM installation.
Installing the CRM on z/OS and OS/390 Unix
If you selected the JAM & CRM Unix install set during the installation of the WebLogic JAM Gateway, complete the following steps to install the CRM on the mainframe in a z/OS and OS/390 Unix environment.
Note: This procedure assumes the installer is familiar with File Transfer Protocol (FTP) functions.
tar xvf os390.tar
sh install.sh
The installation script prompts you for responses. Listing 3-2 is a sample installation that shows the installation of the CRM on the mainframe in an OS/390 Unix environment. User responses are in bold.

Installing the CRM on z/OS and OS/390 MVS
If you selected the JAM & CRM MVS install set during the installation of the WebLogic JAM Gateway, complete the following steps to install the CRM on the mainframe in a z/OS and OS/390 Unix environment.
The installation for this environment is semi-automated. Two JCL files are provided to facilitate prerequisites for allocating data sets in the MVS environment and to unload WebLogic JAM product software into the allocated data sets.
The following files relating to this installation procedure are downloaded during the installation of the WebLogic JAM Gateway:
Installation Procedure for CRM on z/OS and OS/390 MVS
Perform the following steps to install the CRM component on a z/OS and OS/390 MVS platform.
Note: The installation process assumes the installer is familiar with Job Control Language (JCL) job operations and File Transfer Protocol (FTP) functions.
You may transfer the files with IND$FILE protocol, if you prefer, provided the text files are transferred in text mode, and the LOAD, DATA, and SAMPLE files are in binary mode. See your Terminal Emulation Software for instructions.
Step 1: Upload the Install JCL Files to the MVS Environment
createds.jcl
uncmprss.jcl
Step 2: Allocate the Initial Data Sets
Use the SET statements in the CREATEDS job to set the high-level qualifiers of the receiving data sets according to the following syntax:
SET HLQPDSE=[QUALIFIER]
In this statement, [QUALIFIER] is the high-level qualifier for the CRM load library. The load library containing the JAM50.LOAD program objects must be a partitioned data set with extended attributes (PDSE).
SET SCLASS=[CLASS NAME]
In this statement, [CLASS NAME] is the storage class name of the PDSE. This parameter is required for OS/390 v2.8, but can be left blank for most systems. The PDSE minimally must have storage class SMS declaration for OS/390 v2.8. See the BEA WebLogic Java Adapter for Mainframe Release Notes for detailed information about platform support.
SET HLQPDS=[QUALIFIER]
In this statement, [QUALIFIER] is the high-level qualifier for the sample and data sets.
SET TMPHLQ=[QUALIFIER]
In this statement, [QUALIFIER] is the high-level qualifier for the temporary data sets. These temporary data sets will be used to receive the distribution files from the FTP.
The CREATEDS job has the following steps:
DELETE
Step 3: FTP the Files to the Allocated Data Sets
Using FTP, put the following product files into their corresponding data sets. The data sets were created in the previous step and have the high-level qualifier identified by TMPHLQ.
From the Unix or Microsoft Windows command prompt, set the binary data transfer mode using the FTP program.
Transfer the data sets using the PUT command.
Note the following example of a PUT command:
put JAM50.LOAD 'BEA.JAM50.TEMP.LOAD'
Step 4: Unload the Data in Data Sets
Use the SET statement in the UNCMPRSS job to set the high-level qualifiers of the temporary data sets using the same value that was used in CREATEDS:
SET TMPHLQ = <TMPHLQ>
In this statement, TMPHLQ identifies the high-level qualifier used for the temporary data sets created in step 1.
Modify the following variables in the SYSIN JCL to the high-level qualifiers used in step 1:
What Do I Do Next?
After you have installed the WebLogic JAM components, BEA recommends that you verify your installation as described in the Verifying Your Installation section. After you have verified your installation, see the Performing Post-Installation Tasks section for additional tasks that must be performed before you begin to use WebLogic JAM.
If you choose not to use the installation verification sample, see the BEA WebLogic Java Adapter for Mainframe Configuration and Administration Guide for information about starting and administering the CRM.
