Customizing the started task procedure CFZCIM

You can start the CIM server via started task procedure CFZCIM. A sample of CFZCIM is shipped with the default PROCLIB.

To customize CFZCIM,

• _ Include CFZCIM in your PROCLIB concatenation.
• _ When you use the default installation directory /usr/lpp/wbem, you need not modify CFZCIM or cimserver.env. Else, you need to customize the procedure in the DD statements and also update the cimserver.env file installed in /etc/wbem to match the correct installation paths for the CIM server.
• _ The DDNAMEs STDOUT and STDERR in path /var/wbem/logs are used to redirect the output from the console into the UNIX file system files cimserver.out and cimserver.err. When the started task is ended, job steps two and three copy the console output to the JCL job log.
• _ The DDNAME STDENV points to the hierarchical file system file containing environment variables required to run the CIM server. For running the CIM server as a started task, the environment variables are set in file cimserver.env located in the /etc/wbem hierarchical file system directory. See Setting the CIM server environment variables for details on how to set environment variables for the z/OS CIM server.
• _ To run the CIM server with a user ID for which the security setup has been completed, either set up the STARTED class or use the started procedures table (ICHRIN03).

  For further details refer to z/OS Security Server RACF Security Administrator’s Guide, topic "Assigning RACF® User IDs to Started Procedures".

  Example of the RACF commands required to set up the CIM server for the STARTED class:

  Example:

  SETROPTS RACLIST(STARTED)
  RDEFINE STARTED CFZCIM.* STDATA(USER(CFZSRV) GROUP(CFZSRVGP))
  SETROPTS RACLIST(STARTED) REFRESH
