Prepare the Service Started Task

The Install Utility generates a started task member for each service instance you set up. Review it to verify that it meets your site-specific requirements. You can then copy it to a procedure library with the required authority.

Note: To assist you with the future deployment, you can update the started task member to use z/OS static system symbols.

Follow these steps:

  1. Review and update the DD statements in the service started task member dsnpref.CNTL(hisname) for your site-specific requirements.
  2. Copy the reviewed member to SYSx.PROCLIB.
  3. Grant the user ID associated with the service UPDATE authority on the run-time data sets created by the installation and setup processes.
  4. Authorize the user ID of the service for the BCPii application program interface (API) and resources.
