There are a number of items that you should test shortly after the first IPL (in addition to establishing logonid records and rules). The minimum items are noted below, but additional tests may be necessary for checking any local modifications or special (critical) processes.
Do the first IPL with CA ACF2 for z/VM on a second‑level test system.
Ensure that the CA‑ACF2 service machine autologs successfully. Ensure that other important service machines function normally (such as MAINT, MVS, and DirMaint).
Do the initial logon using the ACFUSER or MAINT logonids until you establish all user logonids.
Test all local exits and modifications.
Issue ACF SHOW subcommands to verify that the correct VMO records are active (SHOW ALL, SHOW STATE, SHOW SYSTEMS, SHOW ACTIVE).
Run CA ACF2 for z/VM reports to produce reports that you can use to check other processing.
Test the CA ACF2 for z/VM database backup and recovery procedures.
Test the various CA ACF2 for z/VM commands and subcommands on CMS to ensure that they all are working as expected (for example, display logonids and decompile rules).
Test the operands of the ACFSERVE command.
Test interfaces with other products (DirMaint, VMBACKUP, and VMTAPE).
