Allocate Additional Datasets to the z/Server User Task

Within the z/Server User Task, you must allocate all datasets necessary to run Endevor and the Endevor Attachment in an ISPF batch environment.

To be able to access the Endevor Attachment, you must allocate the received REXX library to SYSEXEC, and the LOAD library to the STEPLIB and the Skeleton library to ISPSLIB.

It is recommended that you customize the JCL of the z/Server User Task to perform this allocation. Alternatively, instead of a static allocation you can dynamically allocate the REXX and the Skeleton datasets by customizing the exit procedure TAUTOXA1. See the Workflow Manager Modeling Guide for more details.

If the Endevor product load modules don't reside in the LINKLIST you have to allocate the Endevor product load libraries using the STEPLIB of the z/Server user task. This also applies if you want to use another set of Endevor product libraries than those allocated in the LINKLIST for example if you want to test a new Endevor release.

Please keep in mind that Endevor CSIQAUTU and CSIQUATH must be APF authorized libraries. Therefore all other STEPLIB datasets must be APF authorized as well if you are using those libraries in the STEPLIB concatenation. In the following sample you will have to uncomment the relevant DD statements and replace NDVHLQ by the high level qualifier of your Endevor product libraries.

For more information on customizing the z/Server User Task see your z/Server Installation Guide.
