Course Overview
This course is developed for systems programmers working on an implementation of a Parallel Sysplex. It covers the details of z/OS and z/OS-related products and subsystems exploiting the Parallel Sysplex components. It is focused on the resource-sharing side.
What you’ll learn
- Understand the steps to implement a basic and full Parallel Sysplex
- Implement a basic sysplex
- Implement a multisystem base sysplex
- Implement the connectivity for a Parallel Sysplex
- Implement the features and functions of a Parallel Sysplex
- Implement the coupling facility key exploiters
- Understand the different recovery scenarios
Requirements
- Installing and testing z/OS and related products
- HCD coding
- PARMLIB settings
Target audiences
- This intermediate course should include system and subsystem programmers and personnel responsible for the implementation of the hardware and software for a Parallel Sysplex.
