Scope:
The CA-SYSVIEW software will be upgraded to version 13.0 on all HP mainframe systems supported by the National MVS Software Support Team. CA-SYSVIEW is a performance monitoring and management tool for the z/OS system environment. Operators, systems programmers, performance analysts, and some end users use it to monitor and manage z/OS, JES2, CICS, IMS, CA-Datacom/DB, TCP/IP, and WebSphere MQ resources.
Effective Date:
The rollout is being scheduled with Service Center RFCs and will occur with the MVS Maintenance Window IPLs.
Group Names:
National MVS Software Support Team, and Mainframe Tools and Automation Team.
Affected Locations:
All HP mainframe systems supported by the National MVS Software Support Team.
Summary:
The CA-SYSVIEW software will be upgraded to 13.0 on all HP mainframe systems supported by the National MVS Software Support Team.
Justification:
The upgrade maintains a current level of software supported by the vendor and supports future IMS software and z/OS operating system upgrades.
Benefits to Users:
The upgrade maintains CA-Sysview software currency. It also positions the software to support future IMS and z/OS upgrades.
The SYSVIMS REXX exec is no longer required and will be eliminated. The SYSV REXX exec or ISPF E.CA.SV (on systems with the standard ISPF panels) can be used to access the CA-Sysview panels.
