While we all know that installing Zend Server on IBM I provides us with the PHP engine – you may not be familiar with how PHP runs on the platform and the tools that are provided for managing the environment. In this session, we will explore the structure of how the PHP engine runs on the I platform including a description of the subsystems employ8ed and some basic troubleshooting. We will also take a look at the 5250-based management system (zsmenu) for managing the configuration files, jobs, and subsystems, as well as the Zend Server Web GUI for working with various features of the basic edition of Zend Server including server configuration management, monitoring, and root cause analysis.
