  • WebSphere Application Server for z/OS V5 - Planning for Test, Production and Maintenance

    >Whenever multiple WebSphere Application Server for z/OS environments are present, the need to isolate them from one another is also present. This is particularly true when the WebSphere Test environment needs to be completely isolated from the WebSphere Production environment. One activity that brings this issue to the forefront is maintenance. Here the desire is to isolate one WebSphere cell from another, and even isolate nodes within a cell from one another. The latter is necessary when "non-disruptive rolling maintenance" is the objective. Technical paper.

  • WebSphere for z/OS: Updating an Existing Configuration HFS to Use Intermediate Symbolic Links

    This utility will sweep through a configuration HFS and change all the embedded symbolic links so they point to a new location. It is intended for those who have constructed cells where all nodes point to the same place -- the actual mount point of the WebSphere SBBOHFS data set, otherwise known as the "product HFS" or the "WebSphere SMP/E HFS." Technical paper.
