Internet Install Instructions

To install OCM II on your system from the OCINST.ZIP file you downloaded, please follow these exact instructions:

  1. Sign on to your AS/400 from a PC that is configured for Client Access/400 using Shared Folders. You must sign on using the special IBM-supplied user profile QSECOFR.

  2. If you already have OCM II installed and you are now installing an upgrade, rename the current OCM II library from OCMLIB2 to OCMLIB2OLD.

  3. Run the following command:

    CRTFLR FLR(KISRMT)

  4. Run the following command:

    CRTPF FILE(QGPL/OCINSTALL) RCDLEN(80)

  5. Using your PC, copy the OCINST.ZIP file into the shared folder created in step #2 above. For most systems, this can be done by issuing the following PC command: 

    copy OCINST.ZIP i:\qdls\kisrmt

  6. Also from your PC, unpack (unzip) the OCINST.ZIP file while it is in the shared folder. This will create 5 files in the folder in addition to the zip file.

  7. Now go back to the AS/400 command line and run the following command: 

    CPYFRMPCD FROMFLR(KISRMT) TOFILE(QGPL/OCINSTALL)
FROMDOC(INSTALL)

  8. Also from the AS/400 command line, run the following command: 

    SBMDBJOB FILE(QGPL/OCINSTALL)

    Note: This command requires that the IBM supplied user profile QPGMR be an active entry in your system directory. If you are unsure about the status of your directory, use the WRKDIRE command (WRKDIR for V3R1 installations) to verify that it contains an entry for QPGMR.

  9. At this point, a job will be loaded into your system jobque called OCINST. When the job starts running from the jobque, the following message will be sent to the QSECOFR user profile: 

    "Starting OCM II install"

    and when this step completed, the following message will also be sent to the QSECOFR user profile: 

    "Initial OCM II install processing now complete"

  10. When you receive this message, type the following command on the AS/400 command line: 

    GO OCMLIB2/INSTALL

  11. When the INSTALL menu is displayed, type menu option #1 to complete the installation process. When this command is finished, OCM II will be installed on your system for your FREE 30 DAY TRIAL.

During the last install step, a document called "Additional Documentation Topics" will print. This includes the latest system changes and documentation since the last time the user manual was updated. Please note that no source will be compressed during the installation process.

When you have completed your evaluation of OCM II, you may purchase a permanent installation copy by contacting us and arranging payment.
