Resource Management

Use the Resource Management page to define the cloud domain, and the tenants (classes of users).

Domains

The properties of the domains are shown in a table.

For a description of the columns in the table, see Table 1. For a description of the actions that you can take for domains, refer to Actions for domains.

Columns in the Domains table

Table 1. Columns in the domains table
Column	Description
Domain	Name of the domain.
State	State of the domain. For more information about an error state, hover the mouse pointer over the text. Network Update Failed indicates that an attempt to modify the network cloud domain (managed with the Configuration Assistant task) that is associated with the domain failed. The network cloud domain is modified when you modify the domain's network administrators or the domain's systems. Review the accompanying error message, make corrections as necessary, and use the Set Security Complete action to retry the network cloud domain modification for the domain. Security Update Failed indicates that the security workflow that provides automatic security failed. The accompanying error message indicates the workflow name and workflow key. To understand why the security workflow failed, use the Workflows task to review the failed workflow step status and the workflow history. (To view the workflow steps, click the workflow name on the Workflows page. Then click the History link to view the history.) Make corrections as necessary, then use the Set Security Complete action for the domain. Pending Security Update indicates the following: Manual security is required for the domain, and security setup is required. Manual security is required when no value for a cloud security administrator was specified in parmlib, with option CLOUD_SEC_ADMIN. To see the relevant SAF resources, use the View action for the domain. When the security setup is complete, use the Set Security Complete action for the domain. The Automatic Security workflow did not complete within 60 seconds. Use the Workflows task to see whether the workflow for the domain completed successfully, failed, or is still running. Make corrections as necessary, then use the Set Security Complete action for the domain. Operational indicates that the domain is ready for use.
Domain Administrators	User IDs of the administrators for the domain.
Approvers	User IDs of the domain approvers who are responsible for approving templates that are defined in the domain before it can be used to provision software services instances.
Sysplex.System	Names of the sysplexes and systems for the domain.
Managed By	For a domain that is managed by a primary z/OSMF instance on another sysplex, this field indicates the URL of the primary z/OSMF system. If the domain is not managed from another sysplex, this field is blank. A domain can be defined to include systems from more than one sysplex. In this configuration, creating and modifying templates and other objects is done from a sysplex that you designate as the primary z/OSMF system. Objects that are created on the secondary systems are managed by the primary z/OSMF system. Managed objects are viewable and usable on the sysplex where they reside, but they can be modified and removed only from the primary system. To participate in a multi-sysplex domain, the systems must be defined through the z/OSMF Systems task, and be enabled for single sign-on. For more information, see Defining your systems to z/OSMF.

Actions for domains

The actions are described in the following tables:

General actions. Actions that apply to domains. No selection is required. See Table 2.
Targeted actions. Actions that apply to the selected items. To use a targeted action, you must select one or more items. See Table 3.
Table actions. Actions that apply to the entire table. No selection of table items is required. See Table 4.

The Resource Management task saves a provisioning version with each domain object. For an action to be valid for a domain, the provisioning version that is associated with the domain object must not be higher than the provisioning version of the code for the Resource Management task.

Table 2. General actions for the domains table
Action	Description
Create Domain	Display the Create Domain window to create a new domain for cloud provisioning. You must be authorized to create a domain.

Table 3. Targeted actions for the domains table
Action	Description
Create Tenant	Display the Create Tenant window so that you can create a new tenant for the selected domain. You must be a domain administrator to create a tenant. In a domain that spans multiple sysplexes, this action is available only on the managing (or primary) z/OSMF system. This action is not available on the secondary z/OSMF systems.
View	Display the properties of the selected domain.
Modify	Display the Modify window so that you can modify the properties of the selected domain. You must be authorized to create a domain. In a domain that spans multiple sysplexes, this action is available only on the managing (or primary) z/OSMF system. This action is not available on the secondary z/OSMF systems.
Shared Resource Pool	Select Add Template, Remove Template, Create Shared Pool, Delete Shared Pool, View Shared Pool, Modify Shared Pool, Quiesce Shared Poolor Unquiesce Shared Pool for the selected domain. To delete a shared resource pool, there must not be any currently provisioned resources for the pool. You can use Quiesce to prevent new provisioning of the template.
Set Security Complete	Indicate that the security definition for the domain is complete and the domain is ready for use. To see the relevant SAF resources, use the View action for the domain. In a domain that spans multiple sysplexes, this action is available only on the managing (or primary) z/OSMF system. This action is not available on the secondary z/OSMF systems.
Delete	Delete the selected domains. You must be authorized to delete a domain. You cannot delete the default domain. In a domain that spans multiple sysplexes, this action is available only on the managing (or primary) z/OSMF system. This action is not available on the secondary z/OSMF systems.

Table 4. Table actions for the domains table
Action	Description
Select All	Select all of the items in the table.
Deselect All	Clear all of the items in the table.
Configure Columns	Select the columns to display in the table, specify the order of those columns, and designate which columns are fixed in position when the table is scrolled horizontally.
Hide Filter Row	Remove the filter row from view. If the filter row is displayed in the table, the Hide Filter Row action is listed. Otherwise, the Show Filter Row action is listed.
Show Filter Row	Display the filter row. If the filter row is displayed in the table, the Hide Filter Row action is listed. Otherwise, the Show Filter Row action is listed.
Clear Sorts	Clear the sort from all of the columns in the table. When you use this action, the column defaults to a descending sort.
Clear Search	Clear the search.
