Verify the services

The Developer for z/OS® installation provides several Installation Verification Programs (IVPs) for the basic and optional services. The IVP scripts are located in the installation directory which, by default, is /usr/lpp/IBM/zee/bin/.

Table 1. IVPs for services
Script name	Description
felfivpc	CARMA connection

The tasks described in the following sections require you to be active in z/OS UNIX. This can be done by issuing the OMVS TSO command. To return to TSO, use the exit command.

A large region size is required for the user ID that executes the IVPs because functions such as Java™, which require a lot of memory, are executed. You should set the region size to 131072 kilobytes (128 megabytes) or more.

The following sample error is a clear indication of an insufficient region size, but other errors can occur, too. For example, Java might fail to start.

CEE5213S The signal SIGPIPE was received.
%z/OS UNIX command%: command was killed by signal number 13
    %line-number% *-*   %REXX command%
       +++ RC(137) +++

Note: The z/OS Explorer and Developer for z/OS started tasks must be active before starting the IVP test.
