Configuring the ChangeMan ZMF Plug-in

The ChangeMan ZMF plug-in must be configured in the application server before it can be loaded into Deployment Automation.

Configure the plug-in as follows:

1. Download the ChangeMan ZMF plug-in bundle file from the Release Manager download location on the Serena website at http://www.serena.com/support. For example, ZMF_bundle_vvv, where vvv is the version.
   Note: The bundle appears in the download list only if you have purchased the Mainframe Connector option.

2. Extract the plug-in bundle file. It contains the zmf-plugin.zip file and all of the files needed to configure the plug-in.

3. Stop the Deployment Automation application server and deploy the following files to the Deployment Automation deployment location, the actual Deployment Automation application server location where serena_ra.war is deployed:

   almzmf.war

   almzmfalf.war

   almzmfws.war

4. Copy zmf-core-CURRENT.jar to the following application server path:

   ..\webapps\serena_ra\WEB-INF\lib

5. Add the following lines to the application server web.xml file.
   Note: If you are initiating the ChangeMan ZMF processes directly through Deployment Automation and not through Release Manager, these lines should not be added; you should comment them out if they are already there.

     <servlet>
           <servlet-name>ZMFALFEventRouter</servlet-name>
           <servlet-class>com.serena.servlet.ZMFALFEventRouter</servlet-class>
           <init-param>
               <param-name>redirectURL</param-name>
               <param-value>/</param-value>
           </init-param>
           <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
       </servlet>
       <servlet-mapping>
           <servlet-name>ZMFALFEventRouter</servlet-name>
           <url-pattern>/servlet/ZMFALFEventRouter</url-pattern>
       </servlet-mapping>
   
       <servlet-mapping>
           <servlet-name>ZMFALFEventRouter</servlet-name>
           <url-pattern>/services/*</url-pattern>
       </servlet-mapping>
   

6. Restart the application server.
7. After the application server is started, load the zmf-plugin.zip file in Deployment Automation through Administration > Automation > Automation Plugins.
8. Configure the processes for the plug-in that are required for the Release Manager integration.
