Editing an aopstart EXEC

If you have previously created an aopstart EXEC for your installation, you can edit it to change the environment variables. After you edit this file, you must restart Infoprint Server so that it uses the new values.

To edit the aopstart EXEC:

1. Switch to an effective UID of 0:

   su  

   To use the z/OS® UNIX su command, you must be permitted to the BPX.SUPERUSER profile in the FACILITY class in RACF®.

   _______________________________________________________

2. Change to the directory where you have copied the aopstart EXEC. For example:

   cd /usr/local/bin 

   _______________________________________________________

3. Edit the aopstart file using your preferred editor and save your changes. For example:

   oedit aopstart 

   Edit this file using the IBM-1047 code page. For additional instructions, see the comments in the aopstart EXEC.

   _______________________________________________________

4. Set the set-uid-flag on. For example:

   chmod 4754 aopstart

   Tip:

   Do this step after you edit the file because the set-uid-flag is turned off when you edit a file.

   _______________________________________________________

5. Switch back to your own UID:

   exit
