WebSphere Application Server (WAS) Version 7.0 (V7) for z/OS provides a Java2 Enterprise Edition (J2EE) runtime environment for Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB), along with servlets and JavaServer Pages (JSP) in Web applications.
WAS V7 extends the platform established in WebSphere for z/OS V6, bringing new functionality for application management, messaging, and Web services and new flexible Management and administration options.
Learn how to install and customize WebSphere V7.0 for z/OS, and how to deploy EJB applications and Web applications. Reinforce the concepts you learn in lectures with extensive hands-on laboratory exercises.
Note: This course does not address Java application development for z/OS, and it and does not teach the use of programming tools such as IBM Rational Application Developer 7.0.

Training Paths that reference this course are:
Audience
Experienced z/OS system programmers responsible for the installation and customization of WAS V7, along with Information Technology (IT) professionals responsible for the deployment of EJB and Web applications into WAS V7 on z/OS.
Teams of two or three individuals from an enterprise are recommended to attend. Teams should include the z/OS system programmer responsible for the installation of WAS V7, an application assembler responsible for deploying EJB and Web applications, and possibly a WAS specialist. The range of skills needed for deploying WebSphere e-business applications is such that it is rare for one IT professional to have expertise in all areas of WebSphere.
Prerequisites
Experience with the installation and customization of z/OS and its subsystems, including WLM, TCP/IP, UNIX Services, and the Security Server (Resource Access Control Facility (RACF)), or equivalent product.
This course, just as the WAS V7 product does, assumes that the initial z/OS infrastructure basics have already been implemented, including WLM Goal Mode, Resource Recovery Services (RRS), and the System Logger. The basic implementation of these z/OS subsystems or functions are not covered in this course. Individuals who need training in the implementation of the prerequisite subsystems and functions should consider completing other appropriate courses in the curriculum prior to attending this course.
Skills taught
- Understand the basics of object-oriented applications, EJBs and the J2EE standard runtime environment
- Prepare the base z/OS environment, including all system prerequisites
- Plan for and configure the WAS V7 runtime environment using the supplied WebSphere Customization Tools (WCT) workstation application
- Design and implement a complete server security scheme for WAS V7 on your z/OS system
- Customize your WAS V7 runtime on z/OS
- Set up and run the Installation Verification Test (IVT)
- Deploy an EJB application and a Web application into your new WAS V7 runtime using the systems management administrative functions
- Configure and manage Network Deployment, including a Deployment Manager and Node Agents
- Configure web-based topologies for WAS V7 using the IBM HTTP Server on z/OS together with the WebSphere plug-in
- Install and configure an the Apache-based web server on z/OS to host the WebSphere for z/OS plug-in
- Configure and use a web server node in WebSphere to assist managing the web server plug-in file
- Create a cluster by cloning your first application server
- See how the plugin can perform load balancing and achieve high availability
- Create a proxy server, and drive your applications through this proxy server
- Define a JDBC driver and datasource and deploy a sample application to connect to a DB2 for z/OS subsystem through the UDB universal driver type 4
- Describe the main components and infrastructure of the WebSphere for z/OS java messaging run time environment
- Plan for the monitoring of performance in your new WAS V7 runtime
- Plan for the modification of the installation security configuration necessary to support J2EE application security
