## 6.1 Content Manager installation and configuration 

## 6.1.1 Planning for installation 

In this section, we cover IBM DB2 Content Manager for z/OS installation and configuration. 

Specifically, we discuss how to install and configure the following components: 

GLYPH<SM590000> Library Server 

GLYPH<SM590000> Resource Manager 

Note, the SMP/E installation procedure is not covered in this IBM Redbook. For information regarding SMP/E installation, please refer to: 

GLYPH<SM590000> Program Directory for the Library Server for z/OS V08.03.00 

GLYPH<SM590000> Program Directory for the Resource Manager for z/OS V08.03.00 

These documents come with the product tapes. 

Before you begin the installation, make sure that all the software and hardware requirements are satisfied. 

Installation planning also includes completing the following tasks: 

1. Estimate space for the Library Server and Resource Manager DB2 tables. 

2. Select values to substitute in the installation jobs. 

3. Define at least one Workload Manager (WLM) application environment for the Library Server. 

4. Ensure DB2 stored procedure address space is operational. 

5. Ensure the HTTP server is operational. 

6. Take care of code page considerations. 

If you need to offer a language character set other than the default DB2 Content Manager code page, which is US English, there are code page considerations. If you use other code pages, such as UK English, some information can be misread by the Library Server. If you intend to use another code page, we recommend using EBCDIC 0037. 

7. Ensure you have a TSO user ID that can run DB2 jobs. It must have authority to: 

– Create databases, table spaces, and tables. 

– Bind application plans. 

– Grant run authority on application plans. 

– Grant all authority on tables.
