Browser cannot connect to z/OSMF

When logging into z/OSMF for the first time, your browser either does not connect, or waits indefinitely. Verify that the browser has network connectivity to the host on which the z/OSMF instance is running. If your network connectivity is functioning properly, there might be an issue with the digital certificates used for SSL connections.

Try the following network diagnostic techniques:
  • Entering the command NSLOOKUP to verify that the host name is resolvable
  • Pinging the host system for a response
  • Running the TRACEROUTE command.

For more information about working with certificates, see Configuring a primary z/OSMF for communicating with secondary instances.
