Configuring application servers to automatically start when the QWAS61 subsystem starts

WebSphere Application Server runs in its own subsystem, called QWAS61, which is installed with the product. Use these steps to configure application servers to start automatically when the QWAS61 subsystem starts.

Procedure

  1. Give your user profile authority to the QWAS61/QWASJOBD job description and QWAS61/QWAS61 subsystem description. For each profile:
    1. Create a duplicate of the job description used by WebSphere Application Server profiles. For example, issue the following command on the CL command line:
      CRTDUPOBJ OBJ(QWASJOBD) FROMLIB(QWAS61) OBJTYPE(*JOBD) TOLIB(mywasjobd) 
           NEWOBJ(myserv)
    2. Change the user of the duplicate job description (jobd) from *RQD to QEJBSVR to avoid multiple job descriptions with the same user. For example, issue the following command on the CL command line:
      CHGJOBD JOBD(mywasjobd/myserv) USER(QEJBSVR)
    3. Use the CHGJOBD command to change the newly created job description such that the Request data or command (RQSDTA) field starts the new server. For example, to start the application server for the default profile (server1) when the subsystem is started, set the RQSDTA field as follows:
      'QSYS/CALL PGM(product_library/QWASSTRSVR) PARM(''-profilePath'' 
             ''user_data_root/profiles/default'' 
             ''-server'' ''server1'')'
  2. Add an autostart job entry to the QWAS61/QWAS61 subsystem. Enter the following command from the CL command line:
    ADDAJE SBSD(QWAS61/QWAS61) JOB(myserv) JOBD(mywasjobd/myserv)
  3. Optional: Configure the system such that the QWAS61 subsystem starts during system startup. To enable automatic startup, add the following line to the system startup program:
    STRSBS QWAS61/QWAS61
    Notes:
    • The system startup program is defined by the QSTRUPPGM system value.
    • TCP/IP must be active before WebSphere Application Server subsystem can start. Ensure that the STRTCP command runs before the STRSBS QWAS61/QWAS61 command in your startup program or in your autostart job.
    • For more information about the QSTRUPPGM system value, see the Work Management Guide, SC41-5306, which is available at:
