## About the plugin | ||
The Zowe zDevOps Jenkins Plugin by [IBA Group](https://ibagroupit.com/?utm_campaign=IBA_W-Mainframe&utm_source=jenkins&utm_medium=referral&utm_content=description_zdevops) is an open-source, secure , and reliable agent-less Jenkins plugin that makes it possible to perform most of the actual tasks on the mainframe, managing it with a modern native mainframe zOSMF REST API and the capabilities of available zOSMF SDKs. | ||
|
||
## Advantages | ||
## Main features | ||
- Secure and modern connection of Jenkins to the mainframes through the use of zOSMF REST API. | ||
- The functionality is based on the Kotlin SDK methods, such as JCL jobs submission, download, allocate, write to the dataset, etc., with a log collected upon completion. | ||
- Multiple connections to various mainframes—z/OS Connections List where you can save all the necessary systems and credentials; all data is safely stored under the protection of Jenkins Credentials manager. | ||
- Agent-less. | ||
- Multiple connections to various mainframes — z/OS Connections List where you can save all the necessary systems and credentials (all data is safely stored under the protection of Jenkins Credentials manager). | ||
- Agent-less solution. | ||
- z/OSMF connection validation. | ||
- Convenient user interface panels for working with the mainframe | ||
- Fast execution and functional extensibility. | ||

Thank you for considering IBA Group for your mainframe needs. | ||

||
## Before use - Plugin configuration | ||
After successfully installing the plugin, you need to configure it for further work - this will require a minimum of actions. | ||
1. Move to “Manage Jenkins” -> “Configure System / System” -> scroll to the very bottom of the list of installed plugins and find the panel with the name - <b>“z/OS Connection List”</b> | ||
2. This setting allows you to add all necessary z/OS systems and configure access to them. | ||
It is necessary to set the connection name (it is also the ID for declarative methods in the code). For the example: ```z/os-connection-name``` | ||
3. The URL address and port of the required mainframe to connect via z/OSMF. Example: ```https://<ip-addres>:<port number>``` | ||
4. Add credentials (Mainframe User ID + Password) under which you can connect to the system. | ||
|
||
You can save as many connections as you like, the system will keep the corresponding user IDs/passwords. | ||
|

## Declarative Methods Detail Description | ||
|
||
### allocateDS - Represents an action for allocating a dataset in a declarative style | ||
```groovy | ||
allocateDS dsn:"EXAMPLE.DATASET", dsOrg:"PS", primary:1, secondary:1, recFm:"FB" | ||
``` | ||
**Mandatory Parameters:** | ||
* ```dsn:"EXAMPLE.DATASET"``` - The name of the dataset to be allocated | ||
* ```dsOrg:"PS"``` - The dataset organization (could be only PO, POE, PS, VS) | ||
* ```primary:"1"``` - The primary allocation size in cylinders or tracks | ||
* ```secondary:"1"``` - The secondary allocation size in cylinders or tracks | ||
* ```recFm:"FB"``` - The record format (could be only F, FB, V, VB, U, VSAM, VA) | ||
|
||
**Optional parms:** | ||
* ```volser:"YOURVOL"``` - Volume serial number where the dataset will be allocated. | ||
* ```unit:"SYSDA"``` - Specifies the type of storage device. SYSDA is a common direct access storage device. | ||
* ```alcUnit:"TRK"``` - Allocation units (CYL for cylinders, TRK for tracks). | ||
* ```dirBlk:"5"``` - Directory block records. | ||
* ```blkSize:"800"``` - BLKSIZE=800: Block size of 800 bytes. | ||
* ```lrecl:"80"``` - Logical record length. | ||
* ```storClass:"STORAGECLASS"``` - Storage class for SMS-managed datasets. | ||
* ```mgntClass:"MGMTCLASS"``` - Management class for SMS-managed datasets. | ||
* ```dataClass:"DATACLASS"``` - Data class for SMS-managed datasets. | ||
* ```avgBlk:"10"``` - Average block length. | ||
* ```dsnType:"LIBRARY"``` - Specifies the type of dataset, LIBRARY for a PDS or PDSE. | ||
* ```dsModel:"MODEL.DATASET.NAME"``` - Data set model is a predefined set of attributes that can be used to allocate new data sets with the same characteristics ("LIKE" parameter). | ||
|
||
|
||
### deleteDataset - Represents an action for deleting datasets and members in a declarative style | ||
```groovy | ||
deleteDataset dsn:"EXAMPLE.DATASET" | ||
``` | ||
**Mandatory Parameters:** | ||
* ```dsn:"EXAMPLE.DATASET"``` - Sequential or library dataset name for deletion | ||
* ```member:"MEMBER"``` - Dataset member name for deletion | ||
|
||
**Expected behavior under various deletion scenarios:** | ||
|
||
* To delete a member from the library, the dsn and member parameters must be specified: | ||
``` | ||
deleteDataset dsn:"EXAMPLE.DATASET", member:"MEMBER" | ||
``` | ||
* You cannot delete a VSAM dataset this way. Otherwise, you will get output similar to: | ||
``` | ||
Deleting dataset EXAMPLE.VSAM.DATASET with connection <ip-address>:10443 | ||
ISRZ002 Deallocation failed - Deallocation failed for data set 'EXAMPLE.VSAM.DATASET' | ||
``` | ||
* What do you get if a dataset does not exist? | ||
``` | ||
Deleting dataset EXAMPLE.DS.DOES.NOT.EXIST with connection <ip-address>:10443 | ||
ISRZ002 Data set not cataloged - 'EXAMPLE.DS.DOES.NOT.EXIST' was not found in catalog. | ||
``` | ||
* What do you get if a dataset is busy by a user or a program? | ||
``` | ||
Deleting dataset EXAMPLE.DS.ISUSED.BY.USER with connection <ip-address>:10443 | ||
ISRZ002 Data set in use - Data set 'EXAMPLE.DS.ISUSED.BY.USER' in use by another user, try later or enter HELP for a list of jobs and users allocated to 'EXAMPLE.DS.ISUSED.BY.USER'. | ||
``` | ||
## Use case example | ||
Here you can find an example of a minimal declarative Jenkins pipeline for execution, testing and further modification for your personal needs. | ||
Pipeline can be used either directly inside the ```Pipeline``` code block in the Jenkins server, or in a ```Jenkinsfile``` stored in Git | ||
This pipeline example uses all currently available methods and functionality of the Zowe zDevOps plugin. | ||
**Steps to Execute the Pipeline:** | ||
1. Add a zosmf connection in settings (<b>“Manage Jenkins” -> “Configure System / System” -> z/OS Connection List</b>). Enter a connection name, zosmf url, username and password. | ||
2. Create a new Jenkins item -> ```Pipeline``` and open its configuration. | ||
3. In the ```Pipeline``` section, paste the code from the example below and replace all the necessary variables with your data | ||
4. Done, enjoy the minimal ready-made pipeline template! | ||
```groovy | ||
pipeline { | ||

PO_DATASET = "${HLQ}.NEW.TEST3" // OPTIONAL | ||
PO_MEMBER = "NEWMEM" // OPTIONAL | ||

6. Next you need to login into the Jenkins, move to the <b>“Manage Jenkins” -> “Manage Plugins” -> “Advanced (tab)” -> “Deploy Plugin”</b> (You can select a plugin file from your local system or provide a URL to install a plugin from outside the central plugin repository) <b>-> Specify the path to the generated .hpi/.jpi file</b> (or by dragging the file from Intellij IDEA project to the file upload field in the Jenkins). | ||
