Good Evening, I support Operations Manager under zVM which is pretty new to me. I am in the Automation group and all of our products up until now have been either Mainframe or Web based. We use the minidisk as opposed to SFS. I have wrote some very basic rule defitions and schedules but I would like to get an idea of how the Exec facility works. Having supported several products w/in automation each product has it's own utilities, supplied variables, or functions in the version of REXX it supports. Operations Manager, I assume, would be the same way. I cannot find much information on how the EXEC utilities are managed or supported. Can you compile them? I have also a question on management of the config file containing the automation definitions w/in Operations Manager. For example, what is the best practice with support various products? I have chosen to imbed config files but not really sure if that is the Best Practice. Also, how is roll out managed under a minidisk? We have a couple of machines now that are running zVM and I would like to keep both machines at same level of automation.
Any 'reference', 'training', 'website', 'usergroup' that you look favorably on is welcomed information on my end.
