Introduction

These pages describe the installation of Stonebranch, Inc.'s Universal Agent for z/OS UNIX System Services (USS) on a z/OS operating system. Unless otherwise specified, all references to Universal Agent for z/OS USS refer to version 7.3.x.

Note

Starting with the 3.2.0 release of Universal Products, a Universal Broker must run on all systems on which a Universal Agent component is running, including manager components. The Broker maintains product configuration data for all components that have a configuration file.

Installation Procedures

All Universal Agent for z/OS USS components are provided in the Universal Agent for z/OS SMP/E package.

The z/OS components in that package must be installed before you can install the z/OS USS components. (See z/OS Installation Procedures for information on completing the z/OS installation.)

After the z/OS components have been installed, you can install the z/OS USS components (see SMPE Installation).

The installation consists of running a number of batch jobs. The output of these batch jobs should be kept until a proper installation has been verified.

Note

Please read z/OS USS Installation - Installation Requirements before installing Universal Agent for z/OS USS.
