The z/Server configuration utility is a web-based utility that simplifies the process of configuring the XML file that controls how z/Server operates. The utility guides you through steps to create a new XML file, specifying the holder, scheduler and user server elements. It validates the specified parameters and values ensuring that the XML file is well formed. You can edit a basic configuration file adding advanced or custom parameters and then upload it to the mainframe ready for use with z/Server. You can also download and edit existing XML files directly from the mainframe.
