Configuration overview

Learn how to configure the z/OS® system so that you isolate the customized data in your z/OS distribution volumes and establish TCP/IP communications.

The following steps are described:

• Create new z/OS UNIX file systems for /tmp and /u.
• Customize TCP/IP settings to establish network connectivity.

You might also want to make some additional changes that are commonly made.

• Create TSO user IDs.
• Customize ISPF defaults and the ISPF main panel
• Change console defaults
• Streamline startup and shutdown scripts
• Create an NJE connection to existing z/OS systems

Place these customizations on the single volume A3CFG1 volume that already contains your USER.* libraries. Placing these customizations on a single volume helps with future migrations to new versions of z/OS ADCD distributions.
