Re: installing serverpac for 1.13 using 1.11 system
Hi Tim, It is pretty easy in the ServerPac dialogs to change the name of the mount point to a unique name , such as /service13 . That prevents any confusion as to what gets mounted to what for what. /snip MOUNT FILESYSTEM('ZOS13.OMVS.VAR.ROOT') + /esnip This is your VAR root. There are several zfs files with the low level of ROOT. Your system root would be ssa.OMVS.ROOT or whatever name you used to conform to your shop dataset naming standards. It's good to keep your dialogs clean . If they acurately reflect your set up, they will be more useful as a merge set when you begin to build your next ServerPac install.

The format looks correct - this is what I had: /Service/etc OS130508.OMVS.ETC /Service/usr/lpp/java/J6.0.1 OS130508.OMVS.JAVA31M1 /Service/usr/lpp/java/J6.0.1_64 OS130508.OMVS.JAVA64M1 /Service OS130508.OMVS.ROOT /Service/zWebSphereOEM/V7R0/config1 OS130508.OMVS.SBBNCON1 /Service/usr/lpp/zWebSphereOEM/V7R0 OS130508.OMVS.SBBN7HFS /Service/var/wbemOS130508.OMVS.SCFZHFS2 /Service/usr/lpp/IHSA/V7R0 OS130508.OMVS.SHAPHFS /Service/usr/lpp/perlOS130508.OMVS.SHPEROOT /Service/usr/lpp/php OS130508.OMVS.SHPHROOT /Service/usr/lpp/ported OS130508.OMVS.SHPUROOT /Service/usr/lpp/ixm/IBM OS130508.OMVS.SIXMHFS /Service/var/zosmf/data OS130508.OMVS.SIZUDATA /Service/usr/lpp/zosmf/V1R13 OS130508.OMVS.SIZUROOT /Service/var OS130508.OMVS.VAR Of course you have to mount the /Service first.

Re: installing serverpac for 1.13 using 1.11 system
I did the same thing recently on a CustomPac. Step1 of the RESTORE job is a REXX exec and mounts the file system and then loads. Look at the exec and you should see the mount logic. I think the exec is CPPEHFS.

Re: installing serverpac for 1.13 using 1.11 system
On my last 1.11 system, the mount point was /SERVICE. We also had the alternate root system normally mounted there (for any SMPE work). You may need to confirm the mount point is free before issuing the mount command. :: -Original Message- :: From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:IBM-MAIN@bama.ua.edu] On :: Behalf Of Tim Brown :: Sent: Tuesday, June 12, 2012 2:08 PM :: To: IBM-MAIN@bama.ua.edu :: Subject: installing serverpac for 1.13 using 1.11 system :: :: During the serverpac for zos 1.13 I believe there is a step where you :: mount the new systems root system :: :: on the driving system at the /service point. :: :: :: :: Is the command for this :: :: :: :: MOUNT FILESYSTEM('ZOS13.OMVS.VAR.ROOT') + :: :: MOUNTPOINT('/service') + :: :: TYPE(ZFS) MODE(RDWR) -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
