Configuring z/OS application serving environments with the Profile Management tool

Use this task to configure z/OS application serving environments for your z/OS target systems using the Profile Management tool.

Before you begin

About this task

Configuring a z/OS system application serving environment consists of setting up the application server z/OS environment configuration directory, making required changes to the z/OS target system that pertain to the particular application serving environment, and starting the new environment to verify the configuration. Configuring these application serving environments after product installation requires planning and coordination. If you have not previously configured the application server for z/OS systems, you need to configure a practice stand-alone application server using the default options. The next step is to configure the product configuration that you want. Read about using the Profile Management tool, building a practice application server for a z/OS cell and considerations about WebSphere Application Server for z/OS maintenance for more information.

If you have already created a network deployment cell, follow the instructions in this topic to expand the cell by creating a new managed node or federating an existing stand-alone application server node into the network deployment cell.

WebSphere Application Server for z/OS application serving environment nodes are created using the Profile Management Tool. After the node is configured and running, make further changes using the administrative console or scripting tool.

After you have installed the z/OS product, prepared your z/OS target systems, and plan your new application server environment, perform the following tasks to configure and start the application server environment:

Procedure

  1. Install the Application Server Toolkit (AST) by following the instructions in Installing the Application Server Toolkit.
  2. Review the procedures in Using the Profile Management Tool.
  3. Choose the following task for the type of application server environment you want to configure:

What to do next

After your application serving environment is running, you can install and test the applications. You might also want to configure your Web servers to interact with your z/OS system.
