Putting a Tested TP into Production

The way you make a tested TP available for general use depends on the policy of your installation. Your APPC administrator can do the following to enable other users to run the TP:

Copy the user-level TP profile that the APPC administrator created for the test shell into a profile data set associated with another LU (ideally an LU dedicated to production-ready TPs).
In the profile, replace the parameter that specifies your user ID with one of the following:
- The SYSTEM parameter (to make the profile available to the LU).
- A RACF "group ID" to create a group-level TP profile (to make the profile available to a group of users). If your security system is not RACF, specify an identifier that defines a group of users to the security system.
See Requesting a User-Level or Group-Level TP Profile for information.
Edit the profile's JCL to set the correct environment for the new users (if necessary). For example, change the KEEP_MESSAGE_LOG parameter value from ALWAYS to ERROR.

Your security administrator might also need to give the appropriate users access to the TP profile and any other TPs that the TP allocates conversations with, including any side information used on the allocate requests.
