I found while searching how to get tomcat running on z/OS that some mentioned doing it without JZOS but I never found the followup articles about how they did it. Has anyone built tomcat on USS & got it running without JZOS?
I ask because the team I'm working with has scripts that start & stop tomcat from the command line with simple catalina.bat start & stop. I was able to do a submit of the tomcat.jcl which I placed on USS "submit tomcat.jcl" but how do I stop tomcat? I created a similar jcl, tomcat-stop.jcl calling org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina with stopServer args but the job just sat in the queue and never ran. I looked at the process "ps -e" and saw that JVMLDM50 was running. Am I suppose to stop tomcat by killing the process?
This also led me to another question about running mulitple tomcats on the same box but under different users. I installed another tomcat under a different user & submited the tomcat.jcl job but the job just sat there in the queue. I checked the list of processes but no JVMLDM50 was running. How can you get mulitple tomcats running?
Thanks for any help!
