• What Does an HTTP Server Do?
- Deconstructs the URL (Universal Resource Locator) or URI (Universal Resource Identifier)
- HTTP or HTTPS and Domain Name and Port
- - http:// and www.apple.com and its port :80 (default, rarely specified)
- - Directs TCPIP to the HTTP server of your choice via IP Address from the Domain Name Server and the specified or implied Port
- Parses the Resource Locator or Identifier
- - Takes implied or specified value and determines what to do
- - - Provides a Default first page from a particular file, OR
- - - www.apple.com goes to a default first page (no resource provided)
- Takes explicit parameters and finds a Program or file to handle
- - www.apple.com/support becomes https://support.apple.com

• IHSA Setup
- Based on “Sample Real World Process” in Redpaper
- Define a configuration directory
- - Used our existing /web/ which has its own File System
- - Defined a subdirectory (mountpoint) with its own FS
- - - /web/server30
- - Created and mounted the hlq.WEB.SERVER30.image file system at /web/server30
- Define a userid for the IHSA Server
- - Used our existing WEBADM one in our IMWEB Group
- - - Marked PROTECTED (NOPASSWORD NOOID) - Create an HTTP Server instance
- - su - webadm
- - cd /usr/lpp/IHSA/V8R5/bin
- - ./install_ihs/web/server30 8840 (8840 is listen port)
- Define a Started Task Profile for the IHSA Server
- - RDEFINE STARTED IMWEBS30.* STDATA(USER(WEBADM))
- - SETROPTS RACLIST(STARTED) REFRESH
- Create a Started Task Procedure in SYS1.PROCLIB
- - Based on SHAPJCL2(HAPBPROC) [altered for this slide]

//IMWEBS30 PROC ACTION='start',
// DIR='/web/server30',
// CONF='conf/httpd.conf'
//* To end this server, S IMWEBS30,ACTION='stop' Restart is =‘graceful’
//IHS EXEC PGM=BPXBATCH,MEMLIMIT=512M,
// PARM='SH &DIR/bin/apachectl-k &ACTION -f &CONF -DNO_DETACH',
//STDOUT DD PATH='&DIR/logs/proc.output',
// PATHOPTS=(OCREAT,OAPPEND,OWRONLY),
//* PATHOPTS=(OWRONLY,OCREAT,OTRUNC),
// PATHMODE=(SIRUSR,SIWUSR,SIRGRP,SIWGRP)
//STDERR DD PATH='&DIR/logs/proc.errors',
// PATHOPTS=(OCREAT,OAPPEND,OWRONLY),
// PATHMODE=(SIRUSR,SIWUSR,SIRGRP,SIWGRP)
// PEND

• IHSA Migration Challenges
- Log Management
- - IHSA not as automated as IHSD
- - Combination of conffile statements and external automated processes
- - - #Log Rotation in IHS Apache(IBM Education tutorials 2015)
- - - # CustomLog "|bin/rotatelogs logs/access_log 3600" common
- - Not yet done at SAS

• Some thoughts about IBM HTTP Server from Marna Walle
- A strongly suggested migration path if you are using IBM HTTP Server powered by Domino.
- - 1. Are you affected? Use the “as is” health check from http://www-03.ibm.com/systems/z/os/zos/installation/HTTP_Health_Checker.html
- - - This check will simply tell you if you are using IBM HTTP Server powered by Domino.
- - 2. While on z/OS V1.13 or z/OS V2.1:
- - - Install IBM Ported Tools V1.3 HTTP Server (level 8.5.5, Apache level 2.2).
- - - Migrate from IBM HTTP Server powered by Domino to the HTTP Server 8.5.5.
- - - Use Redbook: IBM HTTP Server on z/OS: Migrating from Domino-powered to Apache-powered (REDP- 4987)
- - - You can run the Domino and Apache servers side by side on z/OS V1.13 or V2.1.
- - - - z/OS Infoprint Server still needs the Domino server prior to z/OS V2.2!
- - 3. When installing z/OS V2.2:
- - - Migrate to IBM HTTP Server 9.0 (in the z/OS V2.2 base, Apache level 2.4).
- - - Use “Upgrading to 2.4 from 2.2” http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/httpserv/manual24/upgrading.html
- - - Refer to http://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSEQTJ_8.5.5/com.ibm.websphere.ihs.doc/ihs/cihs_upgrading2.html
for the general process on how to move from 8.5.5 to 9.0 (although the documentation does not yet discuss z/OS or 9.0).
- - - Configure z/OS InfoprintServer (InfoprintCentral), PKI, and Library Server to use the new z/OS V2.2 HTTP Server.
- - - Take advantage of the migration accommodation for “dual” IHSA (8.5.5 and 9.0), if necessary. Refer to materials to be provided at a later date for important usage details.
