Creating the environment file

This is part of the larger task of creating a broker on z/OS.

Before you start

Before starting this step, you must have completed Customizing the broker JCL

  1. Review the BIPBPROF member. If you define parameters for all users, you can configure BIPPROF to use these parameters, rather than specify them.

    For example, if the time zone option TZ is set as a system wide parameter for all users, you can remove it from BIPBPROF.

  2. Submit member BIPGEN. Review the job output and make sure the environment file in the output contains the parameters you expect.

    If you change BIPBPROF, or system-wide parameters, you must submit BIPGEN again to pick up the changes.
