Verifying your installation

Perform this task for a tracker Z controller or standby Z controller.

When you have installed a tracker, Z controller, standby Z controller, or server, start it and perform initial verification procedures. To completely verify IBM Z Workload Scheduler, start all the address spaces in your configuration, and create database entries, a long-term plan, and a current plan. This is required to verify job submission and connections between systems, and requires some knowledge of the product. Therefore, verification is divided into two parts:
  • Initial verification of individual IBM Z Workload Scheduler address spaces.
  • Verification of your configuration.
You can therefore perform some verification tasks that do not require the knowledge of detailed aspects of IBM Z Workload Scheduler. When you are more familiar with the product components and functions, you can perform further testing.
The following topics are described:

If you are installing a tracker and Z controller in the same address space, review the initial verification procedures for both a tracker and a Z controller.
