Configure the Zowe instance for IZSME

Configure your Zowe® instance for IZSME®. Configuration varies depending on your Zowe version.

Configuring Zowe 2 environments

The following list provides options for configuring your Zowe 2 instance:
Disable node clustering
(Required) IZSME does not support node clustering. You must disable clustering in the Zowe instance by adding the following line to the zowe.yaml configuration file:
zowe.environments.ZLUX_NO_CLUSTER: 1
Note: If node clustering is not disabled, IZSME will not connect to the database.
Reduce Zowe footprint
(Optional) IZSME depends on only the Zowe Desktop component. For the most lightweight instance, set the following parameter in the zowe.yaml configuration file, as follows:
zowe.components.gateway: FALSE
Disable Zowe Configuration Manager
(Required for Zowe 2.3 through 2.7) If you are using Zowe 2.3 through 2.7, you must disable Zowe Configuration Manager by adding the following line to the zowe.yaml configuration file before IZSME installation:
zowe.useConfigmgr: false
Note: For more information about zowe.useConfigmgr, see Zowe release notes for version 2.8.0.
Use custom background graphics
(Optional) IZSME allows you to add your own custom background images. JPG and PNG formats are supported. Put your graphics files in the backgrounds folder, which exists in the following location:
\instance\users\ZLUX\plugins\com.rs.om.webportal\web\assets\graphics-background-images\backgrounds
