Install IBM z/OS Connect EE

The requirements and procedure for installing IBM® z/OS® Connect EE.


Before you begin

Ensure that we have access to Update the z/OS Connect EE V2 embedded WLP.


About this task

This procedure sets up a z/OS Connect EE server suitable for use with the MQ Service Provider. If you already have a server that has been set up in the same way that can be used instead.


Procedure

  1. Create a server using the instructions described here: Creating a z/OS Connect EE Server
  2. Enable the TXRRS authorized service by following the procedure detailed in Configure the Liberty Angel process and z/OS authorized services.
  3. Validate that the TXRRS authorized service has been set up correctly by:
    1. Starting the server. Follow the procedure detailed in Starting and stopping z/OS Connect EE
    2. View the server logs which are at: 
      /var/zosconnect/servers/server_name/logs/messages.log
      These are ASCII files, and should contain output similar to the following:
      A CWWKE0001I: The server test has been launched.
I CWWKB0103I: Authorized service group LOCALCOM is available.
I CWWKB0103I: Authorized service group PRODMGR is available.
I CWWKB0103I: Authorized service group SAFCRED is available.
I CWWKB0103I: Authorized service group TXRRS is available.
I CWWKB0103I: Authorized service group WOLA is available.
I CWWKB0103I: Authorized service group ZOSDUMP is available.
I CWWKB0103I: Authorized service group ZOSWLM is available.
I CWWKB0103I: Authorized service group CLIENT.WOLA is available.
I CWWKB0108I: IBM CORP product z/OS Connect version 02.00 successfully registered with z/OS

      Check the output to see if the TXRRS authorized service group is available. In the preceding example, the line in bold text shows that the service group is available.

      The MQ Service Provider needs this service group to be available

    3. Stopping the server. Follow the procedure detailed in Starting and stopping a server from the command line
