TIBCO® Managed File Transfer Platform Server for z/OS 8.1.0

# Defining Local Resources and Initialization Defaults

Before bringing up the Platform Server, you must define your environment.

You must define the local system in the dataset whose ddname is `GLOBAL` in the Platform Server startup JCL. You have to define each remote system in a separate member of the partitioned dataset whose ddname is `CONFIG` in the Platform Server startup JCL.

The server requires certain information to initialize and function properly. This information is kept in the `GLOBAL` file. At initialization time, the server reads the DD statement GLOBAL and goes to the dataset that is referenced in it. The server reads the information that is server specific from that dataset. Before starting the server for the first time, you must specify the appropriate parameters in the `GLOBAL` dataset.
