OS/390 Overview (1 day)

Designed for: Staff who will be working with an OS/390 system

Primary Objective: To describe the facilities and use of an OS/390 system

The OS/390 System
Development of MVS and OS/390.  MVS component parts and related program products.  MVS/ESA facilities; data spaces, hiperspaces.  MVS advantages and facilities.  MVS concepts; address spaces, paging, swapping; task management; real, expanded, and auxiliary storage; how SRM controls the MVS environment.  MVS components: JES2, SDSF, VTAM, CICS, IMS, DB2, TSO, REXX, Data Facility products, DFHSM, SMS; Security products, RACF; networking products, NETVIEW; monitor components from IBM and other sources.  Job scheduling, OPC.  Storage management.

RACF
How RACF controls access to datasets; naming conventions; terminal access; reporting of violations; control of disks and tapes; submitting jobs to OS/390.


Using TSO and ISPF
Logging on; primary menu; menu hierarchy and structure; session profile, setting PF keys; browsing datasets, editing datasets, using the utilities to allocate (create) a dataset, and perform dataset maintenance; using the jump function; splitting the screen.
