To run tests and simulations that use a Scenario Service
Provider (SSP) on zRule
Execution Server for z/OS®, you
must add the path of the testing and simulation archive to the zRule
Execution Server for z/OS class
path.
About this task
To activate testing and simulation on zRule
Execution Server for z/OS, you
must configure them in the instance you create when the initial configuration
steps are performed. This involves properly customizing the JCL variables
in the HBRINST data set member. You must then add
an SSP to the zRule
Execution Server for z/OS class
path. You can use the default SSP or create a custom SSP that might,
for example, use COBOL data instead of data from a spreadsheet.
Procedure
- Make sure that the HRBINST variables
and ++HBRSSPPORT++ are properly set. ++HBRSSPPORT++ specifies
the port number that is used on the z system to provide the test and
simulation services. Choose an available port.
- Add a create statement to ++HBRHLQ++.SHBRPARM(HBRINST) with
the HBRMODE parameter set to TEST
- Submit ++HBRHLQ++.SHBRJCL(HBRUUPTI) to
create the working data sets.
- In Decision
Center,
click the Configure tab and click Manage
Servers to specify the path to the server where the SSP
is deployed.
The format must be <hostname>:++HBRSSPORT++/testing.
- Add an extra server to specify the location of the Decision
Runner.
The format must be <hostname>:++HBRSSPORT++/DecisionRunner.
- Add the default or custom SSP to the class path variable
of zRule
Execution Server for z/OS.
If you are using a custom SSP jar, add it to the CLASSPATH_SUFFIX
in ++HBRWORKDS++.SHBRPARM(HBRMSTR) where ++HBRWORKDS++ is
the working data set that is used in the preceding create statement.
