5. Create the startup procedure. Steps to create the ICSF Startup Procedure describes this task.
6. Provide access to the ICSF panels. Steps to provide access to the ICSF panels describes this task.
   Note:

   You only need to perform the first six steps once. If you stop ICSF and want to perform a subsequent SMP/E electronic delivery (this is optional), you need to start at Step 7 (Start ICSF for the first time).

7. Start ICSF for the first time. See Steps to start ICSF for the first time. Once ICSF has been started, Master Keys can be entered.

   For additional information on ICSF first time startup, refer to Checklist for First-Time Startup of ICSF. See z/OS Cryptographic Services ICSF Administrator’s Guide for directions on entering Master Keys.

8. Enter Master Keys.
9. Run the JCL to set the SMP/E pass phrase for SMP/E electronic delivery (optional). MK Initialization for SMP/E - CCF Systems Only describes this.

   Only complete this step if ICSF is needed for SMP/E. Do not complete this step for other applications.

Other topics in this publication and z/OS Cryptographic Services ICSF Administrator’s Guide provide additional installation information.
