Installing the Jazz Build Engine for System z from a compressed file

You can install and configure the Jazz Build Engine for System z on z/OS using a compressed (.zip) file.***Build System Toolkit instead of Jazz Build Engine?***

Ensure the prerequisite software is installed and operational before completing these installation and configuration steps.
  1. Download the RTCz-BuildSystemToolkit-xxxx.zip and sblzsamp-xxxx.zip to your workstation.
    Draft comment:
    should we list the file names? maybe just describe them in case the names change for example: 'Download the Build System Toolkit .zip file'
  2. Create a new directory in the USS file system, for example: /u/userId/usr/lpp
  3. FTP (in binary) and unzip the RTCz-BuildSystemToolkit-xxxx.zip to the new directory.
  4. Change the current directory to the toolkit directory. For example: /u/userId/usr/lpp/jazz/buildsystem/buildtoolkit .
  5. Set the executable bit of the libCobolC.so library using the chmod command. For example: chmod 755 libCobolC.so
  6. Unzip the sblzsamp-xxxx.zip on your workstation.
  7. FTP the BLZBENG JCL to a PDS member. For example: put BLZBENG 'BGREEN.SBLZSAMP(BLZBENG)'
  8. FTP the BLZBPASS JCL to a PDS member. For example: put BLZBPASS 'BGREEN.SBLZSAMP(BLZPASS)'
