Abstract
This session introduces the new CA WA CA 7 Edition Server for iDash architecture, describingwhat needs to be implemented in z/OS and the configuration requirements for CA WA CA 7 thatare required to support integration with a CA iDash server.
The session will also include an overview of the communication methodology between the CAWA CA 7 Edition Server for iDash and a CA WA iDash instance and cover some basictroubleshooting of communication and connectivity issues between these components.
In addition, the session provide a summary of the additional CA WA CA 7 specific functions thatwere introduced with the CA iDash r12.0.01 incremental, such as SCHID=0 support, CA 7 JobLinks and the inclusion of Dataset Requirements in Flow Views, as well as insights into CA 7specific functionality under development for the CA WA iDash r12.0.02 incremental.
A detailed demo of CA WA iDash for CA 7 will be available in the CA World Exhibition Hall.

Easy as 1,2,3…iDash health1. Check the instance
definition
a) Push the Test icon, look for an error response
b) Is the z/OS system name filled in?
c) Is the Protocol HTTP?
2. Check for a seed data file
a) [customer install path] /CA/idash/dat/ca7/ [instance definition ID]/
b) Are there lots of delta files?
Mainframe health1. Are there any error or
warning messages visible in the CA-7 Server task?
2. Issue a STATUS commanda) Is there a subscription for
your iDash?
i. Is it PUSH/LIVE?
ii. Is it in CATCHUP?
iii. Does the IP address match the one you use to open the iDashinterface?
b) Do you see extra subscriptions?
i. Are they named ‘(Cancelled)’?
Next Steps…1. Can you find any known
problem log strings in the iDash or Tomcat logs?
2. Activate the CA-7 Server internal log and collect one hour of log
a) Can you find any known problem log strings with an ISPF FIND?
3. Is the CA7 task active?a) Is its ICOM active?
4. Can you ping the mainframe from the iDashhost, and vice versa?

…or maybe A,B,CiDash resetA. Simple Reset
1. Delete the instance definition
2. Redefine with the exact same label
B. Full Reset
1. Delete the instance definition
2. Shut iDash down
3. Delete the directory: [customer install path] /CA/idash/dat/ca7/ [instance definition ID]/
4. Start iDash
5. Redefine the instance
Mainframe resetA. Simple Reset
1. Recycle the CA-7 Server task
2. Allow all recovery threads to complete
B. Full Reset
1. End the CA-7 Server task
2. Delete the contents of the PATHNAME and EXTRACTPATH directories
3. Start the CA-7 Server task
Next Steps…A. Perform a Full Reset for both
iDash and Mainframe:
1. Mainframe Full Reset Steps 1 and 2
2. iDash Full Reset (all steps)
3. Mainframe Full Reset Step 3
B. Last Resort:
1. Gather all required doc per the instructions in the next section
2. Open a Support case
