|
|
<div><p><span><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />This topic discusses how you can create your own
|
|
virtual image for fix packages that you want to install at a later time.<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></span></p>
|
|
<div class="section"><div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Notes:</span> </div>
|
|
<ol><li><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />You cannot install PTFs from an image catalog with Management
|
|
Central, but you can use the copy from media function to copy PTFs into save
|
|
files from an image catalog associated with a virtual optical device. For
|
|
instructions, see <a href="rzam8fixobtaincopymedia.htm#rzam8fixobtaincopymedia">Copy fixes from media</a>.<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></li>
|
|
<li>Your user profile must have *ALLOBJ and *SECADM authority to use the image
|
|
catalog commands.</li>
|
|
<li>If you do not have a virtual optical device, you must create one. To create
|
|
one, see <a href="rzam8fixinstallimage.htm">Install fixes from an image catalog</a>.</li>
|
|
<li>If you build a custom fix package and save it to virtual optical media,
|
|
you cannot span virtual volumes. Your custom fix package must fit on one volume.</li>
|
|
</ol>
|
|
<p>To create your own virtual image in an image catalog, do the following
|
|
steps:</p>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<ol><li class="stepexpand"><span><strong>Create an image catalog</strong></span> <p>Create an image catalog
|
|
for the set of PTFs that you want to install. The Create Image Catalog (CRTIMGCLG)
|
|
command associates an image catalog with a target directory where the pre-loaded
|
|
images are loaded.</p>
|
|
<pre>CRTIMGCLG IMGCLG(<em>ptfcatalog</em>) DIR(<em>'/MYCATALOGDIRECTORY'</em>) CRTDIR(*YES) TEXT(<em>text-description</em>)</pre>
|
|
<div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> A directory can be associated with only one image catalog.</div>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li class="stepexpand"><span><strong>Add an image catalog entry</strong></span> <p><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />Add
|
|
an image catalog entry to create a new image file in the image catalog.<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></p>
|
|
<pre>ADDIMGCLGE IMGCLG(<em>ptfcatalog</em>) FROMFILE(*NEW) TOFILE(NEWIMAGEFILE)
|
|
IMGSIZ(xxxxx) TEXT(<em>text-description</em>)</pre>
|
|
<p><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />The
|
|
size of the image needs be large enough to contain the size of the fixes that
|
|
you want to distribute.<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li class="stepexpand"><span><strong>Load the image catalog</strong></span> <p>This step associates
|
|
the virtual optical device to the image catalog. Only one image catalog can
|
|
be associated with a specific virtual optical device. Type the following command
|
|
to load the image catalog:</p>
|
|
<pre>LODIMGCLG IMGCLG(<em>ptfcatalog</em>) DEV(<em>OPTVRT01</em>) OPTION(*LOAD)</pre>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li class="stepexpand"><span><strong>Initialize the virtual image</strong></span> <pre>INZOPT NEWVOL(MYVOLUMEID) DEV(OPTVRT01) CHECK(*NO)
|
|
TEXT(MYTEXTDESCRIPTION)</pre>
|
|
<p>The system initializes the virtual
|
|
image.</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li class="stepexpand"><span><strong>Copy PTFs to virtual media</strong></span> <p>Copy any PTFs and
|
|
PTF groups to virtual optical device. You cannot span virtual optical volumes;
|
|
all PTFs and PTF groups must fit on a single volume. If you exceed the capacity
|
|
of the volume, either create a new volume or initialize the volume to a larger
|
|
size.</p>
|
|
<p>Use the Copy PTF Groups (CPYPTFGRP) command to copy the PTF groups
|
|
to the media. You can optionally specify CPYPTF(*YES) on the command to copy
|
|
the PTFs in the group.</p>
|
|
<pre>CPYPTFGRP PTFGRP(xxxxxxx) FROMDEV(*SERVICE)
|
|
TODEV(OPTVRT01) CPYPTF(*YES)</pre>
|
|
<p>Use the Copy PTF (CPYPTF) command
|
|
to copy PTFs to the media. Repeat the command for each product that you have.</p>
|
|
<pre>CPYPTF LICPGM(xxxxxxx) FROMDEV(*SERVICE)
