Prerequisites

The Rational® Build Agent must be running on the target build system before you begin this task. The Job Monitor must also be running on the same build system as the agent.

To communicate with the Job Monitor, the Build Agent must have the jcl_submit_user and job_monitor_port parameters set to appropriate values in the bfagent.conf configuration file.

The jcl_submit_user parameter provides the credentials that will be used by Job Monitor when you submit jobs to JES. Add the following line to the bfagent.conf file:
jcl_submit_user userid:encrypted_password
where userid is the system ID of the user submitting jobs, and encrypted_password is an encrypted version of that user password. You can find the encrypted form of the password by executing the following line at the USS command prompt:
bfagent –e password
where password is the password to be encrypted. The command will print a text string containing the encrypted value. The result will be similar to the following:
050405aaeb43166a00f763716b989f26651e2448ce309b72680a
The job_monitor_port parameter specifies the port with which Job Monitor is communicating. Add the following line to the bfagent.conf file:
job_monitor_port XXXX
where XXXX is the Job Monitor port. This port should match your SERV_PORT setting for Job Monitor, which is set to 6716 in the hlq.SBLZSAMP(BLZJNCFG) file.
