    The jobs that you need to submit to set up this RTE are indicated by a Yes in the REQ column.
  2. Submit the required jobs by using the composite SUBMIT job, or by submitting them individually.

    If you choose to use the composite SUBMIT job, review and edit it as necessary. Any job marked as REQ AUTH/Yes, require authorization to run. In the case of job 8, “Copy runtime mbrs to system libs,” authority is required to update system libraries. If you don't have that authority you can have someone else submit the job or you can create your own version of the system libraries: PROCLIB for started tasks, VTAMLIST for major nodes, and VTAMLIB for the LU62 table. Other jobs, such as z/OS® UNIX System Services system setup, might also require specific user authorization to make changes to the file system. Because the user who has been configuring the RTE may not have the correct authorization in place, specific jobs can be excluded from the composite job and submitted separately by a user who does have the correct authorization.

    Make sure all jobs listed as “REQ=(YES)” run to proper conclusion.

  3. If the jobs complete with any errors, review the $IVPRPT verification report, correct the errors noted, and resubmit the jobs.

    For more information on the verification report, see Completing the setup of the runtime environment.

What to do next

Complete any configuration required outside the configuration software. In Quick configuration mode, you can access "Complete the configuration" instructions for all installed products and components by selecting option 5 from the Workflow - Primary Option Menu.
