Scenarios using PARMGEN
Scenarios contain step-by-step instructions for configuring, reconfiguring, maintaining, upgrading, and replicating your runtime environments. The topics in this section describe scenarios using PARMGEN.
Implementation scenarios Implementation scenarios step you through the creation of runtime environments (RTEs) and the configuration of components and products in those environments. SMP/E maintenance and upgrade scenarios During maintenance and upgrades, only a subset of the PARMGEN KCIJ* jobs need to be rerun to refresh the read-only product execution runtime libraries and the product-specific RKANDATV library. The steps that you need to take depend upon the maintenance or upgrade scenario you are implementing.Runtime environment reconfiguration scenarios After you have set up your runtime environments, you may occasionally need to modify them. For example, you might need to add, reconfigure, or delete products, or you might need to change parameter values to tune monitoring performance. The steps you take to reconfigure the RTE depend upon the scenario you are enacting.Deployment scenarios After you have configured one or more runtime environments, you can clone them and deploy them to other LPARs. Cloning runtime environments allows you to deploy environments with considerably less customization.
