Creating a new profile

[carolscliar]

Hello, i am trying to start to IBM course for COBOL, but i'm finding really hard to create a ZOWE profile, i already have the ID and PASSWORD provided by IBM, i saw a lot of information but nothing seems to work. I have the 7.28.2 version

If you have something like this in ~/.zowe/zowe.config.json (sample from the OMP COBOL programming course):

{
    "$schema": "./zowe.schema.json",
    "profiles": {
        "LearnCOBOL": {
            "properties": {
                "host": "204.90.115.200"
            },
            "profiles": {
                "zosmf": {
                    "type": "zosmf",
                    "properties": {
                        "port": 10443
                    }
                }
            },
            "secure": [
                "user",
                "password"
            ]
        },
        "base": {
            "type": "base",
            "properties": {
                "rejectUnauthorized": false
            },
            "secure": []
        }
    },
    "defaults": {
        "zosmf": "LearnCOBOL.zosmf",
        "base": "base"
    },
    "plugins": []
}

You would likely need to change the values for host and port.

In Zowe CLI, you would then run the zowe config secure --gc command to enter a user ID and password.

When a put this in the terminal: zowe config secure --gc i have this message: No secure properties found in your config

Have you been given a zowe.config.json file? If you have, the file should be copied into the ~/.zowe directory.

Otherwise, you could create a v1 profile using the zowe profiles create zosmf-profile.

Hi, thanks for the answered ! I manage to go to this part, but now i have this error when i try to open the file, do you know what can i do ? Thank you

And it is supposed to look like this:

[adam-wolfe]

It looks like you'll need to submit the PDSBUILD or JCLSETUP jobs to get all of the data sets. Do the instructions tell you where to find the PDSBUILD and JCLSETUP members?

[carolscliar]

Yes, but i need to first find the "HELLO" file, but it doesn't show, it is suppose to be like this:
