Once you have installed the EntireX Broker and EntireX Developer's Kit, you can verify that the installation was successful.
This document covers the following topics:
To
test the EntireX Broker Interface installation
Start EntireX Broker. See Setting up Broker Instances in the z/OS administration documentation.
Run the example programs:
BCOS is the example server program
BCOC is the example client program
The execution JCL for the example programs is located in the EXX951.JOBS library in members BCOSJCL and BCOCJCL. Modify the JCL for your installation, and submit job BCOSJCL first, followed by job BCOCJCL.
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 will be written to SYSPRINT.
The installation can be verified by running the EXAMPLE program provided with EntireX Developer's Kit on the PC, located in the EntireX directory under Examples/Broker RPC/Client/.
This verification requires that the Broker is up and running and the RPC server has been started. See Setting up Broker Instances in the z/OS administration documentation and, depending on the RPC server,
For example, if you are using the CClient, enter the command
Client ETB001 RPC SRV1 CALLNAT
| where | ETB001 is the Broker ID of the server |
| RPC, SRV1, and CALLNAT are the Broker CLASS, SERVER NAME, and SERVICE being offered |
the selection panel is displayed:
CMD Function ------------------------------------------ C RPC CALC function S RPC SQUARE function I Ping the running RPC server T Terminate the running RPC server . Exit ------------------------------------------ Please select:
Choose option C (RPC CALC function), where you should receive the response:
Calling CALC: 12345 + 67890 = 80235.
