Comments
------------- ENHANCEMENTS ------------- The new Software Management task, previously named the Deployment task, contains the existing software deployment functions along with new software management functions. Briefly, the Software Management task allows you to view details about your software inventory, including installed products, features, FMIDs, data sets, deployments, and SYSMODs. In addition, support has been added for the following browsers: Mozilla Firefox ESR 10 and Microsoft Internet Explorer 9. More specifically, the following new actions have been added to the z/OSMF Software Management task. 1. View a list of the products, features, FMIDs, and data sets that are included in your software instances. You can use this information to identify which software instances, data sets, or systems might be impacted if you upgrade a product; to determine if you have the prerequisites installed for a specific function; and, to determine which data sets will be deployed during a deployment. 2. View details about your installed products. For example, you can do the following: - View a list of all the products contained in your software instances. - Determine which products are nearing or have reached end of service support. - Identify which software instances contain a product and will be affected by any changes to the product. You can use this information to identify which products need to be ordered for a future upgrade and to provide evidence of what is installed to an auditor or procurement team. 3. Generate reports about your software. For example, you can generate the following reports: - End of Service - Helps you determine if any of the products contained in your software instances are approaching or have reached end of service support. - Missing Critical Service - Helps you determine if any unresolved PE PTFs, HIPERs, or other exception SYSMODs identified by ERROR HOLDDATA are contained in your software instances, and helps you identify the SYSMODs that will resolve those exceptions. - Missing FIXCAT SYSMODs - Helps you identify any unsatisfied hardware or software requisites that are required for a specific category of software fixes. - Software Instance Comparison - Helps you determine the functional and service differences between two software instances. - Software Instance Validation - Helps you verify that the software libraries associated with a software instance exist and contain the appropriate parts. - SYSMOD Search - Helps you determine if your software instances contain the SYSMODs in which you are interested. ------------- DOCUMENTS UPDATES ------------------------------ This APAR provides a significant upgrade to z/OSMF V1R13.
