The APA is packaged in a zip file which includes a Read Me ("apareadme.html") file along with the product software. Unzip the file and click the "APA.exe" file to start up APA.
A setup wizard will be displayed where the Host Address, Host Port and Startup APA Started Task (STC) must be provided. This provides connection information required to access the remote repository.
Once the wizard is completed, a Logon dialog will be displayed where the TSO userid and password must be entered to connect to z/OS. Once a successful connection to z/OS has been established, APA will automatically populate with the Observations List of the remote repository Startup APA STC.
