This topic describes tasks you need to perform to implement DFSMSrmm. This topic also includes some optional tasks that might not need to be performed for your installation. Review all the steps in this topic as well as information in the z/OS Migration before you begin implementing DFSMSrmm. If you have multiple z/OS images or a RMMplex, you must repeat several of these steps for each z/OS image. We provide recommendations for steps that should be repeated for each image. z/OS Migration describes steps that are required before you install DFSMSrmm.
