This article leads you through the tasks involved in federating a WebSphere Application Server for z/OS stand-alone application server into a Network Deployment cell.

About this task

Perform this task to federate an existing WebSphere Application Server for z/OS stand-alone application server into a Network Deployment cell.

Procedure

  1. Log on to TSO on the z/OS system on which you intend to federate the server. Use a user ID that has READ access to the WebSphere Application Server for z/OS product data sets. You will also need access to a user ID with authority to make security system updates and a user ID with UID 0. (These can all be the same user ID.)
  2. Start the Customization Dialog. See Starting the Customization Dialog for details.
  3. Choose the configuration data sets in which you will store your customization jobs and data. See Choosing configuration data sets for details.
  4. Load the security domain variables saved from the security domain you intend to use for this cell. See Loading the security domain variables for details.
  5. Set the customization variables according to the values recorded on your federated application server node worksheet. See Setting the customization variables: Federated application server node for details.
  6. (Optional but recommended.) Save the federated application server node customization variables in a data set. See Saving the cell variables for details.
  7. Create the customization jobs and files, based on the customization variable values you entered. See Creating the customization jobs and files for details.
  8. Follow the generated customization instructions. See Following the generated customization instructions: Federated application server node for details, and a sample set of customization instructions.

Results

You are done when you have successfully completed the steps in the generated instructions. The new federated application server node is up and running on the chosen z/OS system. See Working with your new federated server node for more information.
