Configuring common MVS groups and users

This article describes how to complete the "Configure common MVS groups and users" option for a WebSphere Application Server for z/OS Network Deployment cell.

Before you begin

Create the common MVS groups and users you will use for the new Network Deployment cell and know the name of the saved configuration variable file that you recorded on the worksheet.

About this task

The common MVS groups and users settings are used in the customization of every WebSphere Application Server for z/OS cell. By loading the variables at the start of node or cell creation, you ensure that the configuration you use is consistent and matches the RACF definitions that have already been set as part of the configuration.

Complete this task as the first step in configuring a new Network Deployment cell. If you encounter problems during customization and change the common MVS groups and users variable values, be sure to re-save them.

Procedure

  1. On the "Configure Deployment Manager Node" panel, type the appropriate number in the Option field to select "Configure common MVS groups and users" and press Enter. You will see a panel that looks similar to the following:
  2. Fill in the name of the sequential data set you used to hold the common MVS group and user variable values and press Enter. The variables will load.

Results

The common MVS groups and users settings are loaded. You can display these variables, but not change them.
