MAR, Business Continuity Manager, and Tiered Storage Manager for Mainframe share the same user SVC. Therefore, you must compare the version of the currently enabled user SVC registered by Business Continuity Manager or Tiered Storage Manager for Mainframe and the version of the prerequisite user SVC for MAR, and then you must use the user SVC of the later version.

When installing MAR, to confirm the version of the currently enabled user SVC, use the YKINSCHK command for Business Continuity Manager or the KTINSCHK command for Tiered Storage Manager for Mainframe.

If the confirmed user SVC version does not satisfy the conditions of the user SVC version requirements for MAR, register the user SVC again.

When statically registering a user SVC in an environment in which a version of Business Continuity Manager earlier than 8.5.1 or a version of Tiered Storage Manager for Mainframe earlier than 8.5.2 is installed, you need to define the SYMDEF statement (&YKSVCNO system symbol).

When upgrading MAR, refer to the instructions for preparing for the upgrade.

Tip:
  • For details on the YKINSCHK command, see the Hitachi Business Continuity Manager Reference Guide.

  • For details on how to define the SYMDEF statement in Business Continuity Manager, see the Hitachi Business Continuity Manager Installation Guide.

  • For details on the KTINSCHK command and how to define the SYMDEF statement in Tiered Storage Manager for Mainframe, see the Tiered Storage Manager for Mainframe User Guide.
