System Prerequisites
The following section describes system prerequisites necessary to use ACIF in the
AIX, OS/390, MVS, VM, and VSE environments.
AIX Prerequisites
Either one of the following AIX software products is required to use ACIF:
|
PSF for AIX Version 2.1 (program number 5765-505) with, minimally, the
|
psf.acif option installed. This version of PSF for AIX requires IBM AIX for RISC
|
System/6000 Version 3.2.5 (program number 5756-030) or higher.
|
Notes:
|
1. Installation of
only psf.acif will provide you with the ability to run the acif
|
command.
|
The formdef parameter is required for running ACIF. For AIX, see page 34.
|
For OS/390, MVS, VM, or VSE, see page 96. Though you may use form
|
definitions from other sources, the psf.acif install option provides a form
|
definition named F1ACIF. (See the description for form definition F1A10110
|
in
IBM Print Services Facility for AIX: Print Submission for details regarding
|
form definition F1ACIF.)
|
The pagedef parameter is required for running ACIF if the input file
|
contains S/370 line data, mixed-mode data, or unformatted ASCII data.
|
Though you may use page definitions from other sources, several page
|
definitions are provided with PSF for AIX. The PSF-supplied page
|
definitions are installed into the /usr/lpp/psf/reslib directory with the
|
psf.acif option. These page definitions are listed and described in
IBM
|
Print Services Facility for AIX: Print Submission.
|
2. In order to print and to use the other resources that are available for ACIF,
|
you must
also install psf.base.
|
InfoPrint Manager for AIX 3.1.0. This version of InfoPrint Manager requires AIX
|
version 4.2.1 and higher.
OS/390 or MVS Prerequisites
The following OS/390 or MVS software products are required to use ACIF:
|
MVS/ESA Version 5.2.0 or OS/390
|
PSF/MVS 2.2.0 or PSF/MVS 3.1.0 for OS/390.
VM Prerequisites
The following VM software products are required to use ACIF:
VM/SP 5 or above
VM/SP HPO 5 or above
VM/XA 1.2.1 or above
VM/ESA 1.1.0 or above
