IMS Installation and Maintenance Processes

IBM Redbooks

IMS Installation and Maintenance Processes

This IBM Redbook is intended to help systems programmers who are responsible for IMS systems in performing their daily tasks. It describes the different options available in the installation of IMS and IMS service maintenance.

This book is suitable for experienced IMS professionals as well as for someone relatively new to IMS who has had to come in and take over. It provides a review of the steps involved in installation, installation verification (IVP), and system definition of IMS.

General recommendations are given regarding when and how to upgrade the maintenance level of IMS systems. Also discussed are the important topics of problem management: how to search resolution for a problem, how to report a new problem to IBM, and how to get service for the problem. Examples of the new Web based tools and Web sites are included. The examples cover the IMS and z/OS technical support Web sites and the usage of ShopzSeries.

This book is based on the usage of IMS Version 7, but also anticipates the changes that are introduced by IMS Version 8. It can be used as a reference when migrating to these versions of IMS or when upgrading the existing version to the newer maintenance level.
