About this task

Complete the following steps to establish a new application server for a z/OS stand-alone application server cell. This includes the Feature Pack for Web Services when the process is complete.

Procedure

  1. Create a customization profile that includes the Feature Pack for Web Services.
    1. Launch the Profile Management tool for z/OS.
    2. Select Feature Pack for Web Services for application environment type.
    3. Select z/OS Application Server with Feature Pack for Web Services for environment type.
    4. Enter the values from your z/OS Profile Management tool worksheet: Stand-alone application server cell with Feature Pack for Web Services.

      After all the required values are entered, select Finish, to create the customization definition.

      Note: If an error should occur during the process of creating the customization profile, a window will display the location of a log file. Review the log file for more details about the issue.
  2. Review the stand-alone application server definition file to confirm that the values are correct. Read about Reviewing the customization definition for instructions.
  3. Upload the customization jobs and scripts to the target z/OS system. Refer to Uploading the customization jobs to z/OS for instructions.
  4. Follow the generated instructions, which can be viewed using one of the following method:
    • In the Profile Management tool, select the desired customization profile and click View.
    • After you have uploaded the definition, view member BBOSSINS in config.hlq.CNTL.
  5. Fix any problems.
    If you encounter problems caused by your values in the customization profile, modify your variables using the Profile Management tool, regenerate the instructions, and upload the customization definitions again.
    Note: Do not attempt to fix a typographical error or make a change by modifying the generated output. Many of the variables are used in multiple members of the target data sets; if you do not change them all, therefore, you will run into problems that are very difficult to diagnose.
    Note: Remember that you cannot upload new customization jobs while either configuration data set is open.

Results

You have set up a new z/OS system stand-alone application server cell with the Feature Pack for Web Services installed.
