Installing Robot/CORRAL

Product: 
Robot/SAVE

Before You Begin

Read these instructions completely before you begin.

The Robot/CORRAL installation process calls a Help/Systems program to create or change the two Help/Systems user profiles, RBTUSER and RBTADMIN. The RBTUSER and RBTADMIN profiles were created for the following reasons:

  • They satisfy requests from corporate auditors that our objects be owned differently from IBM objects.
  • They allow us to build a secure product for your environment.
  • They isolate Help/Systems products from IBM changes to the QPGMR or QSECOFR profile defaults.

Note: If you have made any manual changes to the RBTUSER or RBTADMIN user profiles and their authorities, these changes will be lost with any product installation or conversion.

No other Help/Systems products can be active while Robot/CORRAL is installed. End the RBTSLEEPER subsystem before starting the install. For minimal impact on your operations, plan to install at a time when your Help/Systems products do not need to be active.

Installing Robot/CORRAL

  1. Sign on under a user profile that is a member of the user class *SECOFR and has at least the following special authorities: *ALLOBJ, *SECADM, *JOBCTL, and *IOSYSCFG. The user profile should have Limit capabilities set to *NO.
  2. End all Help/Systems products. The install process may stop the RBTSLEEPER subsystem, which is used by other Help/Systems products. Stopping RBTSLEEPER interrupts processing by these products.
  3. Make sure that the library QTEMP is in your library list before you start installing.
  4. Enter the following command to display the Maintain Help/Systems Products menu:
  5. RBTCDRLIB/HLPCDMENU

  6. Select option 1 from the Maintain Help/Systems Products menu to display the Install Products panel, which lists the Help/Systems products not currently installed on your system.
  7. If you would like more information about a product and its features, enter a 3 next to the product name.

  8. Option 1 on the Install Products panel displays the Install Instructions panel for the product; this is the same information included in the Before You Begin and After You Are Done sections of these instructions. 
  9. When you are ready to start installing, enter a 2 next to Robot/CORRAL on the Install Products panel.
  10. The installation program installs Robot/CORRAL, the RBTSYSLIB library (as needed), and two user profiles (RBTADMIN and RBTUSER). It adds RBTSYSLIB to the system portion of your library list if required.

When the installation completes, read the After You Are Done instructions for any additional information or instructions.

After You Are Done

Robot/CORRAL resides in library RBTROLLIB, which was restored to your system during the installation process.

The installation process also restored the following three libraries to your system for use during installation: HSBOOT, RBTCDRLIB, and HSSAVF. In case you are doing multiple installations, we do not remove them from your system. You can delete them when you have finished your installations.
