Provides systems programmers, technical staff and end users with all the information required to successfully install and maintain VSE operating systems. Following a basic review of hardware and software management functions for the less experienced user, the book covers the design, structure and usage of each VSE/ESA operating component in detail. Frequently encountered software systems such as CICS, VTAM, SQL/DS, VSAM, POWER and PC LANs are analyzed using real world examples from typical VSE environments. A detailed discussion of MVS, VM, AS/400 and RS/6000 systems and how they can be used with VSE are included.
This is a practical guide to AS/400 systems administration and programming, offering readers detailed explanations of file system setup and maintenance, system backups, database management, security measures, performance management and capacity planning. It sorts through the everyday tasks faced by AS/400 administrators and points out solutions to common problems. Readers will find coverage of REXX programming, downsizing strategies, tips for handling connectivity difficulties and details on implementing AS/400 as the cornerstone of a streamlined client/server environment. Also included is the following: coverage of the OS/400 operating system and its command language with advice on system programming methods; step-by-step procedures for OS/400 installation, support and management; advice on migrating CICS applications to the AS/400 platform; and guidelines for downsizing/rightsizing an entire system to the AS/400 platform.
