Creating systems

To create Launcher processes (.msl system files) that run on your Launcher platform, you must use the Integration Flow Designer (IFD).

Additionally, you can use the IFD to:

  • Define systems and Launcher settings.
  • Build maps for a target platform, if required.
  • Move all files that are required for system execution (that is, ported map files, Launcher system files, and so on) to a target platform in a designated deployment directory. For example, generate the system file (.msl) to the deployment directory.

See Integration Flow Designer documentation for more information about systems.

Note: When using the z/OS® native administration interfaces, see "z/OS Launcher" for more information. The remainder of this topic does not apply.
