Installing GeoTAX - GeoTAX_Premium - 7.7

On Windows:

1. Download the GeoTAX software by following the instructions in Downloading GeoTAX and support components.

2. If the zip file is not already open, navigate to where you saved the zip file when downloading it from the website. Extract the files from the zip file.

3. Double-click Setup.exe. The install wizard guides you through the installation process.

When the install completes, follow the instructions for downloading the data files (see Downloading the data files).

On UNIX/Linux:

1. Download the GeoTAX software by following the instructions in Downloading GeoTAX and support components. The software is delivered in a compressed tar file.

2. Extract the files from the .tar file.

3. From the bin directory, run configuresetup. This launches the interactive setup script.

4. Follow the instructions provided in the setup script.

5. Copy the license file (license.lic) provided in your email from Precisely Technical Support to the ${G1GTX} directory and create a text file called gtgspas.lic containing only the license file password. This can be done with the command:

"echo <password> > gtgspas.lic", where <password> is the password you received in your email from support.

When the install completes, follow the instructions for downloading the data files (see Downloading the data files).

On z/OS: 

The installation process involves the following steps. These steps assume you have already downloaded the .exe or .zip file and unzipped it to extract the files.

1. FTP the IDSINSTL JCL.

2. Customize the IDSINSTL JCL.

3. Run the IDSINSTL job.

4. (Optional) Re-link object modules to create load modules.

   Note: You can bypass this step if your facility allows you to install load modules. Some products are now delivered in load module format. This enables you to get up and running much faster than ever before. Once the IDSINSTL job completes, you can install any required databases (using the current load library where applicable) and run your regression/IVP tests. Once you are satisfied with the results, you can schedule migrating the new modules into your production environment. No relinking required.

5. Load or reload the database. For more information, see Loading GeoTAX Data.

6. Run the installation verification procedure to ensure a successful install. For more information, see Running the Installation Verification Program.

7. Configure and test CICS, if applicable. For more information, see CICS Installation.
