The BMC Compuware/Innovation Data Processing family of products, FDR*, IAM* & FATS* have been renamed and are now marketed under BMC AMI Storage. The program libraries for these products are no longer unloaded via the IDPREC installer. Please use the BMC Installation System to download, unload, and install them.
We have a set of Quick Courses that are 3-5 mins in duration on various topics for the BMC Installation System:
PDFs and videos - Documentation for Installation System - BMC Documentation
Further information regarding the BMC Installation System can be found here:
https://docs.bmc.com/docs/is/en/home-807524371.html
NOTE:
If this is not your first time using the BMC Installation System you must be at the current RLS level of the BMC Installation System software to complete any BMC Software Install, Upgrade or product maintenance.
If you requested the product via the EPD (Electronic Product Distribution) portal, you will be taken to the “Mainframe Installation” web page:
https://www.bmc.com/support/resources/mainframe-installation.html?301=mainframe-installation
Both of the above two links have a link to the Getting Started page that outlines the steps to download and install the BMC Installation system and following that, the subsequent product libraries. I've also listed it here: https://docs.bmc.com/docs/is/en/getting-started-807524376.html
Once you have familiarized yourself with the overall process, from the “Mainframe Installation” web page, select the “Installer JCL” link to be taken to the “Sample JCL” page where you will find JCL appropriate for your FTP protocol to download the BMC Installation system.
Additional product information relating to the installation can be found in these release notes for IAM and IAM/PLEX V11:

Once the BMC Installation system is downloaded, unloaded and installed, you will be able to use our installation system and download the product files. When it is time to select the product to download, there is only one IAM product to download, This is found under All Products:
BMC AMI Storage IAM/IAMPLEX
After making a selection with an S, continue to press enter until reaching a display of "Below are the products and solutions that were selected for installation." and follow instructions presented.
Once downloaded, there are a series of numbered/sequenced steps to follow that are documented in the $$$READ member in the installation JCL library that you will download. As part of installing the product, you will need a password/license key to confirm your entitlement. When you reach that section of the install, please open a new case and the password team will work with you to supply a password/license key.
To obtain PTFs, please use the IBM SMP/E RECEIVE ORDER command. For more information about using RECEIVE ORDER for BMC products, see Using SMP/E RECEIVE ORDER . The link has instructions for Requesting RECEIVE ORDER via a batch job and Requesting RECEIVE ORDER via the web. Please see Recommended Service Level (RSL) maintenance for a list of published RSLs.
If you cannot run the sample JCL to download the installer directly to your LPAR, please use this link to download the installer via your browser onto your PC. Once the installation system is downloaded, FTP the file to your LPAR, in binary, and then you can use the sample decompress job referred to in the link below to unpack the installer.
