This is a POC project with the goal to provide an advanced launcher for Zowe components.
- Stopping Zowe using the conventional
Poperator command - Ability to handle modify commands
- Stopping and starting specific Zowe components without restarting the entire Zowe
- Issuing WTOs indicating the start and termination of specific components (this should simplify the integration with z/OS automation)
- Passing modify commands to Zowe components
- Clean termination of the components in case if the launcher gets cancelled
cd zowe-launcher
make
The launcher binary will be saved into the bin directory.
- Zowe 1.11.0
- Specify the Zowe installation and instance directories in
zowe.conf - Run
patch-zowe.shto apply the require Zowe changes - Copy the launcher JCL (
samplib/zlaunch) to your PROCLIB - Edit the JCL and specify the launcher directory in the WORKDIR variable
Edit components.conf to add and remove components. The configuration consists of key-value pairs, where a key is a component name and a value is the path to the component binary.
- To start the launcher use the
Soperator command:
S ZLAUNCH
- To stop use the
Poperator command:
P ZLAUNCH
- To stop a specific component use the following modify command:
F ZLAUNCH,APPL=STOP(component_name)
- To start a specific component use the following modify command:
F ZLAUNCH,APPL=START(component_name)
- To list the components use the following modify command:
F ZLAUNCH,APPL=DISP
