Installing and setting up the base application

Before you can run the base application you must define and populate two VSAM data sets, and install two transaction definitions.

Creating and defining the VSAM data sets
The example application uses two KSDS VSAM data sets to be defined and populated. One data set contains configuration information for the example application. The other contains the sales catalog.
Defining the 3270 interface
The example application is supplied with a 3270 user interface to run the application and to customize it. The user interface consists of two transactions, EGUI and ECFG.
Completing the installation
To complete the installation, install the RDO group that contains your resource definitions.
