Create an MSS-enabled Enterprise Server

To create an MSS-enabled enterprise server:

1. Launch Visual Studio.
2. Open Server Explorer.

   If it is hidden, display it by choosing View > Server Explorer.

3. Expand Micro Focus Servers.
4. Right-click localhost, and click New Enterprise Server.
   Tip: If you are not currently signed on to the current enterprise server, the Enterprise Server Sign On dialog box appears: click OK to sign on as the SYSAD user. (Alternatively, click Use specific server credentials, then enter a valid username and password.)

   The Create New Enterprise Server dialog box appears.

5. Type JCLDEMO in the Name field.
6. If you plan to create a 64-bit JCL application, check the 64-bit box, otherwise leave it unchecked.
7. Click the browse button next to the Template field.

   This opens the location of the Enterprise Developer server templates, which is VSInstallDir\Common7\IDE\Extensions\Micro Focus\Visual COBOL SOA\1.0\Etc\ServerTemplates by default.

8. Select JCLTemplate.xml, and click Open.
9. Click OK.

   The Output window displays notification that the server has been created. If the Output window is not displayed, select View > Output.

10. In Server Explorer, expand localhost to check that the JCLDEMO server has been added. By using the template, the server already has the necessary options selected for MSS enablement.
