II10683: BDT MODULE PLACEMENT DURING INSTALLATION

APAR status

• INTRAN

Error description

• Customer has expressed concerns about the lack of documentation
  for BDT module placement which can be used during BDT product
  installation.
  

Local fix

• Problem Conclusion: info apar taken with the following.
  The installation manual and the program directory are not very
  clear but BDT code is shipped in 3 libraries. Which are the
  following, SYS1.SBDTLIB and SYS1.SBDTLINK and SYS1.SBDTLPA
  for OS/390 REL2 and above. For releases prior to this the
  code should reside in libraries SYS1.BDTLIB, SYS1.LINKLIB, and
  SYS1.LPALIB. These should be described in the program directory
  associated with the release.
   ~
  For OS/390 REL2 and above:
  SYS1.SBDTLIB and SYS1.SBDTLINK should be in the LINKLIST
  concatenation (LNKLSTxx) while SYS1.SBDTLPA should be in the
  LPA concatenation (LPALSTxx).
  ~
  For releases below OS/390 REL2
  SYS1.BDTLIB and SYS1.LINKLIB should be in the LINKLIST
  concatenation (LNKLSTxx) while SYS1.LPALIB should be in the
  LPA concatenation (LPALSTxx).
  ~
  Also, be sure that the BDT libraries are apf authorized.
  Although the Installation manual for BDT does not state so
  directly, the OS/390 BULK DATA TRANSFER INSTALLATION MANUAL
  Document number  . . : SC28-1742-02 does.
  B.0  Appendix B.  Virtual Storage Required for the BDT Address
  space specifies the PLPA storage requirements for the BDT
  modules.
  In addition BDTSSINI should be installed into SYS1.SBDTLINK,
  when this library is added to your LINKLIST concatenation
  and you ipl with this new LINKLIST concatenation it will
  be as if you had moved BDTSSINI to SYS1.LINKLIB.
