This task describes how to add WebSphere Extended Deployment for
z/OS to a pre-existing Application Server profile.
About this task
Follow these steps to add WebSphere Extended Deployment for z/OS
to a pre-existing Application Server profile.
Procedure
- Launch the customization dialog from TSO using this command:
ex '<was-hlq>.sbboclib(bbowstrt)' 'prod(eex) prodhlq(<xd-hlq>)'
where:
<was-hlq> is
the dataset high level qualifier for the WebSphere Application Server for
z/OS product datasets.
Note: Use the level of
WebSphere Application Server specified in the WebSphere Extended Deployment
for z/OS V6.0.1 Program Directory.
<xd-hlq> is the dataset
high level qualifier for the WebSphere Extended Deployment for z/OS product
datasets.
- Choose option 5 in the customization dialog, WebSphere Application
Server-based add-on products. Then, choose WebSphere Extended Deployment.
- Follow steps a through d (options 1-4 on the customization dialog
panel) for WebSphere Extended Deployment:
- Allocate datasets to hold WebSphere Extended Deployment customization
jobs and data.
- Define the variables for the WebSphere Extended Deployment SMP/E
home directory and the WebSphere Application Server home directory. The WebSphere
Extended Deployment SMP/E home directory is the directory where WebSphere
Extended Deployment was installed. For example,
/usr/lpp/zWebSphereXD/V6R0
The
WebSphere Application Server home directory is the directory of the WebSphere
Application Server instance to which you want to add WebSphere Extended Deployment.
For example,
/WebSphere/V6R0/ApplicationServer
If
the WebSphere cell to which you are adding WebSphere Extended Deployment has
security enabled, you must specify Y to indicate security is enabled
and specify the userid and password of your WebSphere administrator ID. This
ID must be authorized to login to the WebSphere console and be granted the
administrator role.
- Generate the customization jobs for this WebSphere instance.
- View and follow the customization instructions. The instructions
are found in member EEXINS of the <hlq>.CNTL dataset,
which you allocated in Step 1 of the WebSphere Extended Deployment customization
steps, as described previously.
- Ensure the deployment manager is running. Ensure the application
servers on the node you are customizing are stopped.
- The customization instructions indicate to execute jobs in this
order: EEXSTEP1, EEXSTEP2, and EEXSTEP3. Each job should end with a return
code of zero. These jobs are found in the <hlq>.CNTL dataset,
which you allocated in Step 1 of the WebSphere Extended Deployment customization
steps, as described previously.
- You can now start the application servers on this node.
Results
After you customize each of the application server nodes to which
you intend to add WebSphere Extended Deployment in the target cell, customization
of that cell is complete.
