This topic describes the process for generating and running a customization
job for the deployment manager profile. Although this article focuses on Compute
Grid customization, the differences for installing the other WebSphere Extended
Deployment components, Data Grid and Operations Optimization, are explained
throughout the article where applicable.
Before you begin
Install Application Server Toolkit Version 6.1.1, the 6.1.1.2 update,
and the WebSphere Extended Deployment for z/OS Profile Management Tool optional
feature.
About this task
Use the Profile Management Tool to generate customization jobs
and upload them to your target z/OS system.
Procedure

IBM WebSphere > Application Server Toolkit, where you will be asked to
select a local workspace.
- From the menu bar, select Window > Preferences.
- Expand Server and select WebSphere for z/OS Customization.
- Click Augment. The Welcome to z/OS Customization panel opens,
showing the list of augment options. Select WebSphere Extended Deployment

Tip: Get field help by hovering
your cursor over each field.
- Specify a customization definition name, and a customization definition
directory in the respective fields. The definition directory is where the
definition you are now creating will be stored on your machine. The default
names are acceptable, but you can change them if you prefer. The response
file pathname is optional.
- Click Next. The Target Data Sets panel opens:

- In the High-level qualifier (HLQ) field, specify the high level
qualifier of the CNTL and DATA datasets that will hold your customization
jobs and associated data on the z/OS system where the customization jobs will
run. You can specify multiple dot-delimited tokens to establish
your naming convention. For example, USER87.XD61PID.
- Click Next. The File System Information panel opens:

- Specify the file system paths for your deployment manager root
directory and WebSphere Extended Deployment product files. Then, click Next.
The Ports Values Assignment panel opens:

Specify the
port numbers for the middleware agent and overlay udp/tcpports. The defaults
are 7061, 11001, and 11002. When you are customizing jobs for other components
in WebSphere Extended Deployment, ensure that you use different ports than
you specify for Compute Grid.
- Click Next. The Job Statement Definition panel opens:

- Specify the job card information necessary to run the generated
jobs, then click Next. the Customization Definition Summary panel opens:

- If you are satisfied with the job summary, click Augment,
then click Finish.

Click Finish and upload the customization definition to your
target z/OS system.
