Verifying the z/OS Installation

Once you have installed EntireX, you can verify the installation of the following components.

EntireX Broker

Start of instruction setTo test the EntireX Broker installation

  1. Start EntireX Broker. See Starting and Stopping the Broker in the z/OS Administration documentation.

  2. Run the example programs:

    • BCOS is the example server program

    • BCOC is the example client program

    See Sample Programs for Client (BCOC) and Server (BCOS).

Sample Programs for Client (BCOC) and Server (BCOS)

The programs BCOC and BCOS are client and server programs provided for test purposes. They are delivered as load modules in EXX109.LOAD.

The execution JCL for the example programs is located in the EXX109.JOBS library in members EXXBCOS and EXXBCOC. Modify the JCL for your installation, and submit job EXXBCOS first, followed by job EXXBCOC.

A single message will be sent by program BCOC and then received by program BCOS. Both jobs should return a zero condition code. The output from each job is written to SYSPRINT.

BCOC Parameters

install_verifyClientServer_bcoc

BCOS Parameters
