Master Configuration on z/OS

Note: This feature is only supported if EDc, EDz or IDz is installed.

If a z/OS system is attached to AWM, the master configuration file is read by a REXX procedure that must be located under the SYSEXEC or SYSPROC allocation. The name of this REXX procedure is TAUZCAPP.

Note: If AWM is used in IDz with an IBM RSED connection type, the name of the REXX procedure is TAULAPPL, instead of TAUZCAPP.

If you attache a new remote system to the Tree view, the new system entry receives the remote system name returned from the master configuration file. The called REXX procedure updates all AWM model entries which are listed in the master configuration file. At this time a specific AWM model is not loaded.

This REXX procedure is called each time you perform an action for the first time during an Eclipse session that requires a link to the remote system. The following checks are performed when the REXX procedure is called:

The data set name of the master configuration file is specified in TAUZCAPP respectively TAULAPPL. The REXX procedure used with the server installation (REXX TAUZCAPP with a MFA Server installation, REXX TAULAPPL with a RSED installation) has to be adapted after the MFA server installation, otherwise the mainframe server is not able to find the master configuration file. See Mainframe Access Installation Guide for more information.
