Specifying the Web Server Information for ChangeMan ZMF

So that Serena Release Manager can receive information from ChangeMan ZMF, you must update the ChangeMan ZMF configuration settings with the endpoints and sign-on credentials SBM uses for the connection.

The connection of SBM with ChangeMan ZMF is implemented using ALF events. Serena Release Manager will get the information through SBM.

To specify the Serena Release Automation connection information:

  1. Navigate to the Serena Release Manager common Tomcat Web server classes folder. For example:

    C:\Program Files\Serena\common\tomcat\6.0\webapps\rlm\WEB-INF\classes

  2. Open the zmf.properties file.

  3. Set the properties for the connection as follows:

    Parameter

    Value

    ZMF_WS_URL

    URL to the server, or LPAR, where the RLM, ZMF, ZMFWS, ZMFALF Web services are installed, in the form of:

    http://<hostname>:<port>/zmf/services/ZMFPackageServices/

    ZMF_SERVER_HOSTADDRESS

    Hostname or IP address for the z/OS mainframe server where the ZMF started task, or ZMF application, is running.

    ZMF_SERVER_HOSTPORT

    Port number for the z/OS mainframe server.

    ZMF_SERVER_PROXYID

    Mandatory proxy user ID used to log into the z/OS mainframe server on behalf of a SBM user to ZMF. See Configuring a Proxy User ID .

    ZMF_SERVER_PROXY_PASSWORD

    Password for the proxy user ID.

  4. Restart the Serena common Tomcat service.
