Downloading the extension file and sample customization response files

After installing the product code on the target z/OS system, assemble all the component files that you will need to create IBM BPM for z/OS profiles.

Download the following mandatory and optional files from the z/OS file system:

• The extension file for IBM BPM. This file extends zPMT with additional customization parameters for IBM BPM, and adds the capability to generate customization instructions and jobs for augmenting the WebSphere Application Server profile.

  You must download this file.

• The sample customization response files. These files contain name-value parameters for the WebSphere Application Server and IBM BPM configuration. These files can be imported into zPMT, and provide a good starting point for the configuration because they populate the zPMT windows with standard settings, which you can then amend as required.

  Use of the sample files is optional. You can download any number of these files, as required.

Procedure

1. On the workstation where the WebSphere Customization Toolbox is installed, create a directory to receive the files to be downloaded.
2. Check that an FTP server is running on the z/OS system.

3. Use FTP to transfer the extension file and required sample response files from the z/OS file system to the directory created on the WebSphere Customization Toolbox workstation.

   You must download the files in binary format from the IBM BPM product file system. The default locations of these files are shown in the following table.

   File type	File location and name
   Extension for IBM BPM for z/OS	/usr/lpp/zWebSphere/V8R0/util/WCT/zWBI.wct
   Sample customization response file for a stand-alone DB2 for z/OS configuration	/usr/lpp/zWebSphere/V8R0/zOS-config/ samples/ZBPMPSStandaloneDB2Stacked.WCT.responseFile
   Sample customization response file for a dmgr DB2 for z/OS configuration	/usr/lpp/zWebSphere/V8R0/zOS-config/ samples/ZBPMPSDMgrDB2Stacked.WCT.responseFile

What to do next

You can now install or import the files into zPMT, and use them to define the configuration for your runtime environment.
