Before you begin

Before continuing with the z/OSMF configuration process, ensure that the following work is done.

  1. z/OSMF is installed on your z/OS® system and the appropriate program directory jobs have been run. See Program Directory for IBM z/OS Management Facility, GI11-9847.

    The examples in this document assume that your installation used the default product directories when installing z/OSMF.

  2. You completed the planning checklist for a first time installation in Project plans for configuring z/OSMF.
  3. You reviewed the z/OSMF configuration default values to ensure that they are acceptable for your environment. If not, you can specify alternative values by using an installation-supplied IZUPRMxx parmlib member, as described in Optionally creating a IZUPRMxx parmlib member.
