Create a folder for the server working files
When the CICS® DA
server is started for the first time, it creates a workspace and some
log files on your z/OS® UNIX file system. You specify the
location for the workspace and log files in the configuration tasks
that follow this topic. However, you must create a folder and directory
in your z/OS UNIX file system to contain the workspace and
log files.
During the configuration tasks, you can also use this folder to save the working copies of the CICS DA environment variable file and the server properties file.
Procedure
- In your z/OS UNIX file system, create a folder for the CICS DA server files.
- Create a directory in the folder for use by this server. You can have multiple directories, each one for use by a different server instance. Make a note of the folder and directory path. You use the path when you run the remaining configuration steps.
