WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus for z/OS, Version 6.2.0 Operating Systems: z/OS


Profiles

A profile defines a unique runtime environment, with separate command files, configuration files, and log files. Profiles define three different types of environments: stand-alone server, deployment manager, and managed node.

Using profiles you can have more than one runtime environment on a system, without having to install multiple copies of the WebSphere® ESB binary files.

When you install WebSphere Application Server for z/OS®, you configure the product using the ISPF Customization Dialog, which creates a profile. After you have installed WebSphere ESB, you must augment the profile to define the node either as a deployment manager or stand-alone server for WebSphere ESB. If you have created a deployment manager, you can then create one or more managed nodes. This automatically creates a profile to define the runtime environment for each node.

Note: On distributed platforms, each profile has a unique name. On z/OS all the profiles are named "default"; you cannot rename, edit, copy, or delete profiles on z/OS.

The profile directory

Every profile in the system has its own directory containing all its files. You specify the location of the profile directory when you create the profile: by default it is in the profiles directory in the directory where WebSphere ESB was installed, for example, installation_file_system_root /AppServer/profiles/default.
