Installing the monitoring product on z/OS

Edit online

The monitoring products and shared framework components like the monitoring server are installed via SMP/E. Skip this step if you already completed the SMP/E installation of the monitoring products and SMP/E applied them.

Procedure

  1. Order the monitoring products in a ServerPac on Shopz. The ServerPac contains all the products at the latest RSU level with some SMP/E processing already completed. For these reasons, installing a ServerPac is recommended.
    See Installation packages for more information. Make sure the following products are included in the ServerPac:
    • Tivoli Management Services: search the keyword IBM Tiv Mgmt Services z/OS in Shopz.
    • IBM Z OMEGAMON AI for JVM (FMID HKJJ610): search the keyword OMEGAMON AI for JVM in Shopz.
    • FMID HKCI310 for Configuration Manager (and PARMGEN Workflow User Interface at PTF UA91953)
    • IBM Discovery Library Adapter for z/OS®: The PARMGEN configuration tool uses the data that is collected by this component to tailor the configuration profiles and post-configuration README members.
      Note: IBM Discovery Library Adapter for z/OS is part of every product package that is released for the OMEGAMON products.
  2. Install all product into the same consolidated software inventory (CSI) because the monitoring products have shared elements.

What to do next

After you install the products via SMP/E, they must be configured to operate properly at your site.
