Verifying installation of a tracker

When you have completed the installation tasks for a tracker, perform initial verification of the tracker. Because connections and the submission of work cannot be verified in isolation, you can perform further verification of the tracker when you have installed the controlling system, established connections between Tivoli Workload Scheduler for z/OS systems, and created a current plan. These verification tasks are described in Verifying configuration.

To initially verify the tracker, perform these tasks:

1. Follow the appropriate procedures for the Tivoli Workload Scheduler for z/OS subsystem that you are installing.
2. Ensure that you have completed all the necessary installation tasks.
3. Start the tracker and check the message log (EQQMLOG).
4. Verify that tracking events are created in the event data set (EQQEVDS).
5. Perform problem determination for tracking events if events are missing from the event data set.

|For TCP/IP connections only, ensure that a valid current |plan exists before verifying the tracker.
