See Server Mapping Deployment Wizard.

The deployment service uses the same class and server names as defined for the EntireX RPC server, and DEPLOYMENT as the service name, resulting in class/server/DEPLOYMENT as the broker service. Please note DEPLOYMENT is a service name reserved by Software AG. See broker attribute SERVICE.

Enabling the Deployment Service

Start of instruction setTo enable the deployment service

  1. For a CICS RPC Server, the server mapping file VSAM (container) must be installed and configured. See Step 1: Define an RPC Server Mapping File - VSAMDEF.J (Optional) under Installing the z/VSE EntireX RPC Servers.

  2. Set ERXMAIN Macro parameter DPLY=YES. See DPLY under Configuring the RPC Server.

  3. Define in the broker attribute file, under the RPC service, an additional broker service with DEPLOYMENT as the service name and values for class and server identical to those used for the RPC service. For example, if your RPC service is named

    CLASS = RPC    SERVER = SRV1    SERVICE = CALLNAT

    the deployment service requires the following additional service definition in the broker attribute file:

    CLASS = RPC    SERVER = SRV1    SERVICE = DEPLOYMENT
  4. Optional. If you need to restrict the use of the deployment service to a selected group of users, use EntireX Security and define security rules for the class/server/DEPLOYMENT broker service. The service name DEPLOYMENT is a constant.
