The location of the platform configuration file depends on which operating system the platform is using.
For z/OS, the default configuration file for the Platform Services Process is member ASCPRM00 in the partitioned data set allocated to the ASCPARMS ddname. The default configuration file for the Platform Receiver is the z/OS sequential data set or partitioned data set member allocated to ddname ASAMCONF. You can use a JCL EXEC statement PARM to specify a different configuration file. For more information about specifying the location of the configuration file for z/OS, see the Platform Services Administration Guide for z/OS.
For NetWare®, the default configuration file is sys:asam\data\asamplat.conf. You can use a command line parameter to specify a different platform configuration file.
For OS/400, the default configuration file is /usr/local/ASAM/data/asamplat.conf. You can use a command line parameter to specify a different platform configuration file. For more information about specifying the location of the configuration file for OS/400, see the Platform Services Administration Guide for OS/400.
For UNIX, the default configuration file is /usr/local/ASAM/data/asamplat.conf. You can use a command line parameter to specify a different platform configuration file. For more information about specifying the location of the configuration file for UNIX, see the Platform Services Administration Guide for Linux and UNIX.
For Windows, the configuration file is asamplat.conf in the Windows operating system directory. To determine the location of your Windows operating system directory, enter echo %windir% at a command prompt.
