The following environment variables should be set to the values that reflect your installation:

Environment Variable

Description

AWORKS_MVS_PREFIX

The data set high‑level prefix used for the Agent Technology data sets. This must be the same value assigned to the CAI variable in running the installation script.

AGENTWORKS_DIR

The full path name that defines the directory where Agent Technology files are installed in the zFS system. This must be the same value assigned to the AWORKDIR variable in running the installation script.

RESOLVER_CONFIG

The name of the TCP/IP configuration information data set. This must be the same value assigned to the SYSTCPD DD data set in your TCPIP procedure. A member name must be included if the data set is a PDS.

_BPXK_SETIBMOPT_TRANSPORT

This establishes Agent Technology with an explicit affinity to a specific TCP/IP stack transport Job Name.

AWS_STARTER_REQUEST

The TCP/IP port number used internally to submit requests to the awservices process. The default is 9990.

AWS_STARTER_CONTROL

The TCP/IP port number that allows the awservices process to control the services with agents still active. The default is 9991.

TZ

Your time zone. The default is EST5EDT.

AW_MAX_LOGSIZE_K

The maximum size of the various log files. The default is MAX, the maximum size allowed by your file system. Possible values are integer values representing the file size in KB (for example, 10000 for a maximum size of 10 MB).

AW_AUTO_START

If the awservices process is not running, this variable controls whether another service or agent that was started from a shell using the start command option is allowed to start awservices implicitly. The default value is ON.

The following four environment variables control the collection of statistical information by the aws_sadmin process. This information is held in the awsAdmin MIB, which can be viewed using the MIB Browser tool. Benchmark tests have shown that as much as 40% of the CPU time spent by aws_sadmin is consumed by the updating of these statistics.

Environment Variable

Description

AW_ADMIN_STAT_AGENT

Controls the statistics maintained in table awsAdminAgentTable. When set to OFF, the awsAdminAgentResponseAvg variable returns the value 0. The default value is ON.

AW_ADMIN_STAT_SNMP

Controls all the variables within group awsAdminSnmpGroup. When set to OFF, all variables from the group always return the value 0. When set to NOTOTAL, only the awsAdminSnmpInRequestsTotal variable is not incremented. This variable represents the total of all GET, GETNEXT, and SET requests. The default value is ON.

AW_ADMIN_STAT_PERF

Controls all the variables within group awsAdminPerfGroup. When set to OFF, all variables from the group return the value 0. The default value is ON.
