This is a JZOS installation and documentation question. At our installation (z/OS V2.1), versions of the JZOS loader executables (JVMLDMxx) live in these Unix directories:

/usr/lpp/java/Jx.y/mvstools

/usr/lpp/java/Jx.y_64/mvstools

Where "x.y" is the Java version, like 6.0 or 7.0, etc.

As Gil has pointed out several times, you cannot *legally* use a Unix directory in a STEPLIB DD or concatenation (well, anyway it is not documented that you can). And in fact although this may occasionally work with an empty PDS(E) as the first catenand, my experience of trying this with the JZOS loader executables is that it generates an S922 abend (fatal error in initiator, SVC dump taken).

So my installation question is this: Does the normal installation of the JZOS component also include automatic copying of the JVMLDMxx executable(s) into some system-maintained PDSE(s)?

If not, where is it documented how to copy these executable(s) into a PDSE library which can legally be used as a STEPLIB, and that it is the user's responsibility to do this in order to use JZOS?

I have figured out with help from the MVS-OE list (or maybe I had help here, ATM I do not remember) that "/bin/cp -X" is the "right" way to copy those executables into a PDSE, but I would like to see the actual documentation, if any, which references that (or some other) method as a user responsibility.

TIA for any info or RTFM you can provide.

Peter
