Customization

Menu option "C" Initial Product Customization in the primary menu brings you to the customization overview panel. The options in this panel will guide you through mandatory and common optional customization tasks.

             z/OS Explorer Vxx – Customization
Option ===>

Required customization
1  Started tasks
2  Remote Systems Explorer (RSE)
3  JES Job Monitor (JMON)
4  TSO/ISPF Client Gateway

Select after the above configuration steps have been completed
G  Generate configuration jobs
The customization actions are grouped in three sections:
  • Required customization: mandatory customization required for product startup
  • Optional product customization: customization of optional product components, which must be acquired and installed separately from this product.
  • Optional runtime customizations: customizations so that other products can use z/OS® Explorer functions and generated code. Note that runtime customizations are currently not implemented and thus not available on the panel.

Each option will bring you to an input panel where you can specify values for the related variables. Note that the panels might not cover all possible configuration options to reduce complexity. See the Host Configuration Guide (SC27-8437) for a detailed overview of each available option.

Note:
  • The input panel might have more lines than supported by your current screen size. You can use PF7 (up) and PF8 (down), to navigate through a multi-screen panel.

Once you completed the various customizations, select option "G" Generate to create a set of tasks (called the work items) that will create the configuration files and do related actions (such as security definitions) based upon the specified values.

Generating the work items completes the first step of the customization process for this configuration, so the provided information will be saved for future use. The utility will prompt you for a meaningful name for this configuration.

The configuration has been modified and will be saved on exit
