IBM zS: Is there a z/OS JCL "LDAP DD" Statement and what is its syntax?
Hi, the organization I work for is trying to replace tnsnames.ora administration with LDAP administration. For the desktops and laptops, this was straightforward, and we aren't having trouble with the backbone of Solaris and Linux servers, but when it comes to the z/OS 2.1 environments, we are not finding the documentation that we need. Could someone show us the way to go for z/OS?
The Oracle databases that we are trying to reach are 12c, 11g, and 10g databases, running on Solaris 10 servers. A JCL job configures the (always outbound) connection from z/OS 2.1 to the relevant Oracle database by using a //TNSNAMES DD PATH=... statement. Our objective is to replace this TNS name resolution with LDAP name resolution.
