Managing your BRMS network with the BRMS graphical interface

The BRMS graphical interface performs many of the setup functions for you and minimizes the number of steps. To use the BRMS network functions:

• Navigate to the BRMS graphical interface.
• In the BRMS pane, click Select Action > System Policy Properties
• In the System Policy Properties pane, click the Network tab.
• Click Manage Systems.
• Click Select Action > New.
• In the Add BRMS Network System pane, enter the system name and network identifier of the remote system.
• You can enter alias names to identify the remote system on the network that differ from the default local location name as defined in the network attributes of the remote system. You can specify the value None in the TCP/IP name, APPC name, or Relational database fields, if you want to prevent BRMS from using that particular communication method.
• Add the relational database name, if any, that is to be used to connect to the remote system for remote relational database operations. This name must have a matching Relational Database Directory Entry on the current system. Use the Work with Relational Database Directory Entries (WRKRDBDIRE) command to view the current entries.
• Click OK.
• Click Activate.

The system will be added to the current network.
