Introduction

The main step before deployment of an IBM Cúram Social Program Management is to package the application into EAR (Enterprise ARchive) files. However, the building of the application .ear files cannot be done on z/OS and must be done on Windows or any other environment that is identified as a being supported for building in the Cúram Supported Prerequisites document.

The remainder of this chapter outlines z/OS -specific requirements for building z/OS -compatible .ear files. For details on building IBM Cúram Social Program Management .ear files see chapter 2 of the Cúram Deployment Guide for WebSphere Application Server. You may also find helpful information from the following manuals:

• Cúram Application Workshop Guide - This manual has basic build instructions for application .ear files;
• Cúram Server Developer's Guide - This manual has detailed instructions for a server build (chapter 3);
• Cúram Web Client Reference Manual - This manual has detailed instructions for web client development including installation and configuration (chapter 4);
