Augmenting a stand-alone profile

When you process the customization definition for a stand-alone server, several JCL jobs are generated for creating and augmenting the default WebSphere Application Server profile. After you create the profile, you can run the JCL job that augments the stand-alone server node.

• Create and process a customization definition to generate the JCL jobs, augmentation response file, and other data files for the stand-alone server.
• Set up the configuration file system and create the WebSphere Application Server profile in the file system.
• Define the database configuration in a database design file.

• If required, create a DB2JccConfiguration.properties file to enable connection to DB2 for z/OS .
• Ensure that you have administrator authority on the system so that you can run the augmentation job.

Procedure

1. Back up the configuration file system on the server, so that you can restore it if necessary. See Backing up the WebSphere Application Server for z/OS system.

2. In the DATA data set, which was generated when you processed the customization definition for the stand-alone server, edit the augmentation response file named BPZRSPA to include some additional parameters:
   • Verify that the fully qualified file name of the database design file is specified as the value for the bpmdbDesign parameter.

     For example:

     bpmdbDesign=/WebSphere/V8T3Z1/AppServer/util/dbUtils/bpm.advanced.standalone.dbDesign

   • Add the parameters for Business Process Choreographer. The following parameters are required, and are shown with sample values:

     bpcDbName=A8CELLDB 
     bpcDbStorageGroup=A8DBTSO 
     bpcDbSqlId=A8CELL 
     bpcDbProduct=DB2UDBOS390 
     bpcDbConnectionLocation=DSN5WWQ2 
     bpcDbJDBCClasspath=/usr/lpp/db2910/classes 
     bpcDbUser=wsadmin 
     bpcDbPassword=secret
     bpcDbHostName=myhost.loc.ibm.com
     bpcDbServerPort=41234 

3. Follow the remaining instructions that are available in the Customization Instructions view in pmt.sh perspective, in the relevant HTML file in the customization location, or in the CNTL data set in the z/OS system:
   1. Submit the job to create the tailored cataloged procedures and copy them to your procedure library. Each different node type under the root directory of the configuration file system requires its own cataloged procedures under z/OS.
   2. Submit the augmentation job BPZAUGA. This job updates the symbolic links in the configuration file system and augments the WebSphere Application Server profile with IBM BPM functions.

   3. When the job completes, view the job output to verify that your profile augmentation completed successfully. You can also review the WAS_HOME/logs/manageprofiles/default_augment.log file.

   4. Complete the remaining steps in the customization instructions except for the steps for starting the server and verifying the installation.

      Important: Before you can successfully start the server, first create the databases for the IBM BPM components and then load the databases with system information.

4. Optional: Back up the data sets that contain the stand-alone server configuration.

Results

The stand-alone server is now augmented with IBM BPM functions.

What to do next

You must now create and configure the databases. This includes running the database scripts to create the database objects in one or more databases, and then completing any additional database configuration tasks that are required.
