Introduction
Before you start to install be sure you have the following
available: • Two real disk drives • At least one real tape drive (the system generation process is
simpler if you use two tape drives) • Two scratch disks (one is used for the starter system and the other
is used for the new system residence volume) • The starter system tape • The system Program Update Tape (PUT) • At least one scratch tape
The system generation procedures described in this manual refer to
related publications. These publications are listed in the Preface.
The following procedures for installing CP and are described: • 2314 starter system • 3330 starter system • 3340 starter system • 3350 starter system
From these starter systems you can generate a system for
residence on a 2305, 2314, 3330,3340, or 3350. (It is recommended,
however, that 2305 devices be used for paging rather than for system
residence; therefore the 2305 is not included in the system generation
procedures. )
An 3330V volume may not be used for system residence. You can then load and save the discontiguous saved segments your
installation may wish to usee Following the procedures for installing CP and CMS are the procedures
for installing the optional RSCS (Remote Spooling Communications
Subsystem) component of the SCP.
In addition, the information you
control program is found in "Part 4. Program. " need to install the 3704/3705 Generating the 3704/3705 Control
Part 3. Generating (CP, RSCS, and IPCS) 227

General Information General Information CP and C"S have separate system residence disks which may be located on
the same or different physical disks. The following procedure tells you
how to generate the CP system residence disk or move the CMS system
residence disk. Before you attempt to generate a VK/370 system, make
sure that the real I/O configuration file (DKKRIO), CP system control
file (DKKSYS), the VK/370 Directory file (DKKDIR), and, optionally, the
forms control buffer load (DMKFCB) and the system name table file (DKKSNT) are punched. Information about preparing these files is in "Part 2: Defining Your VM/370 System." If CMS is to be sa ved as a named
system, be sure that the NAKESYS macro is coded correctly in the DKKSNT file.
The VK/370 starter system is distributed on a 9-track tape (1600 or 6250 bpi), that can be restored to direct access volumes. You must
specify the device type (2314/2319, 3330, 3340, or 3350) when you order VK/370. The 3340 starter system fits on a 35 megabyte disk, so it can hp to of thp 33UO Qr 33UU- the starter svstem th; type (2314, 3330; 3340, or 3350) it was ordered for, you can use it to generate a VK/370 system for
residence on any other type of device as well as for the type of device
for which it was ordered. You should also specify the tape density
required (1600 or 6250 bpi).
The layout of the starter system's minidisk areas are constrained by the number of cylinders that may be dumped onto one volume of 1600 bpi
tape. Therefore, it is strongly recommended that KlINT's 190 (the CKS system disk) and 194 (the CP area) be reproduced on larger minidisks for
ease of maintenance. Also, "service staging areas" for CP/RSCS and CKS/IPCS (294 and 193 respectively), must be created to receive the
auxiliary files and "update" files from the system PUT. This process is
detailed later in this publication under the heading "Updating Vft/370" and in the Kemo-to-Users that is contained on the system PUT. The VK/370 system tapes are as follows: • The V"/370 starter system contains the base level of both the CP and CKS systems, the text decks with which to build these systems, and
the maclib and support procedures. • The SOURCE tape contains all source files, and macros of VK/370. • The system Program Update Tape (PUT) contains all source updates,
text decks, modules, macros and macro libraries, and procedures
required to build the latest level of CP, CKS, RSCS, and IPCS. • The SOURCE tape and the system PUT are created (and restored) with
the V"FPLC2 command.
Five optional sets of tapes can also be ordered: • The assembler tape containing source, macros, text, modules, and
procedures for the assembler • CP assembly listings (three tapes) • CP (AP) assembly listings (two tapes) • CKS assembly listings (two tapes) • IPCS and RSCS assembly listings (one tape)
