If you require IBM® MFA to have affinity with
the TCP/IP stack of your choice, establish affinity using BPXTCAFF.
About this task
A program can associate a socket with a specifically-named transport. This is called
transport affinity. If you require IBM MFA to
have affinity with the TCP/IP stack of your choice, establish affinity using BPXTCAFF.
(See z/OS UNIX System Services Planning for a description of BPXTCAFF.) The BPXTCAFF program must run prior to the
programs that initialize the IBM MFA address spaces. Both
started tasks must use the same transport.
Procedure
-
Edit AZF#IN00 and uncomment the job step that invokes BPXTCAFF before AZFSTCMN. Specify the
desired transport with the PARM= keyword, which must be 1 to 8 uppercase
characters.
//STEP0 EXEC PGM=BPXTCAFF,
// PARM=TCPIP2
//AZF130 EXEC PGM=AZFSTCMN,
-
If you configured the web services configuration attributes as described in Configuring IBM MFA web services configuration attributes, edit AZF#IN01 and uncomment the job step
that invokes BPXTCAFF before AZFSTCWS. Specify the same transport you used in Step 1.
//STEP0 EXEC PGM=BPXTCAFF,
// PARM=TCPIP2
//AZF130 EXEC PGM=AZFSTCWS,
-
Save the changes.
-
Ensure that the AT-TLS profile you create in Configure an AT-TLS profile reflects this TCP/IP stack.
-
Restart the edited tasks, as described in Start the IBM MFA services started task
and Start the IBM MFA web services started task, respectively.
