Hi
Most of IBM products utilize the own VM userid for the installation and maintenance procedures and OMEGAMON
is no different. That being said it is an optional component that is used to provide an automated response to
alerts. These commands (permitted that is) are VM commands executed under the command server userid that is
also defined during the installation. That being said, this is an optional component and need only be installed if you
want to issue changes to the VM system based upon your monitoring/performance thresholds. The complementary
Linux agent component provides the same function at the Linux OS level.

Subject: omegamon
I am installing zVM omegamon on my 5.4 system. Can anyone tell me why I have to create a NEW id called 5698A36B to install it, why I can’t use MAINT? I am linking the id to all the MAINT disks….
And, yes I will continue to read the manuals, but just hoped someone had some insight.
