Remove WebSphere constructs from previous releases
Description
In previous releases of z/OSMF, your installation configured an instance of IBM® WebSphere® Application Server OEM Edition for z/OS® for each instance of z/OSMF. This process produced a number of WebSphere constructs on your system, such as configuration files and log files, and the WebSphere servant region user ID. As of z/OSMF V2R1, these constructs are no longer needed; you can remove them.
Table 1 provides more details about this migration action. Use this information to plan your changes to the system.

| Timing: | Before installing z/OS V2R2. |
| Is the migration action required? | No, but recommended to clean up the system with unnecessary constructs. |
| Target system hardware requirements: | None. |
| Target system software requirements: | None. |
| Other system (coexistence or fallback) requirements: | None. |
| Restrictions: | None. |
| System impacts: | None. |

Steps to take
To find the residual constructs, check the directories and files under mount point /zWebSphereOEM/V7R0/config1. You can remove these constructs as part of your migration to z/OS V2R2.
Also, check for the WebSphere servant region user ID and any associated security authorizations in your security product. In previous releases, this user ID was defined on variable IZU_SERVANT_USERID in your configuration file or override file. By default, the user ID is WSSRU1.
