Configuring RTCS
This section explains how to configure a target z/OS image to be able to start the RTCS Initiator and initialize the RTCS subsystem.
RTCS is installed by using the BMC Installation System. During the installation, you also configure RTCS:
- BMC recommends using the Installation System to configure RTCS, as described in Using-the-Installation-System-to-configure-RTCS.
- If you need to modify the RTCS configuration after using the Installation System, use the information in Modifying-an-RTCS-configuration.
- If you need to manually configure RTCS, use the information in Manually-configuring-RTCS.
The z/OS image configuration process must be performed so that the RTCS Initiator and the RTCS subsystem started task programs can receive control in the proper state and key from the z/OS initiator. This enables the RTCS subsystem control address space to establish RTCS in the z/OS image as a formal z/OS subsystem. Started task PROCs to start these address spaces must be placed in the proper STC procedure libraries (PROCLIBs). In addition, required ESM attributes must be established for the RTCS subsystem and Generalized Server address spaces. The required product data sets (or production copies that were made) must be accessible from the target z/OS image.
