SmartProduction
The
SmartProduction base product requires:
- One
of the Following MVS Versions With Either JES2 or JES3:
- OS/390
- z/OS
- ISPF
Version 2 or Above
- TSO/E
Version 1 Release 3 or Above
Also,
the following SMF record types are required for minimal operation:
14, 15, 30 (subtypes 4 and 5) and 64. In addition, SmartProduction
will use the following record types if available: 16 (DFSORT),
17, 18, 61, 62, 65, 72 (subtype 3) and 77, and the SyncSort SMF
type (default 208), which you may specify at installation time.
The
SmartProduction DB2 Optional Component requires SMF record type
101 DB2 Accounting Class 1 records for minimal operation. In addition,
SmartProduction will use the following record types if available:
101 DB2 Accounting Class 2 and 3, 102 DB2 Performance Class 9
IFCID 95 and 96.
ROPES
ROPES
requires CICS and is compatible with CICS/MVS 2.1.2, CICS/XA (V3
all releases), CICS/ESA (V4 all releases) and CICS/TS (V1,
V2 and V3, all releases). There are some level dependencies, specifically
in the supplied Task Control or VTAM Task Attach User Exit, provided
in three versions (ROPEKCRQ for CICS 3 and below, ROPEZC41 for
CICS 4 and ROPEZCRQ for CICS TS), and the language-specific copy
books.
ROPES
support for COBOL applies to all versions and levels of COBOL,
including COBOL VS, COBOL II and COBOL for MVS and VM (LE COBOL).
The preprocessed copy books provided with ROPES (for use with
CICS TS 2.3 using the COBOL3 option) may need reprocessing under the following conditions:
1) you run a different level and/or change CICS levels after installation;
2) you change COBOL versions; or 3) you change COBOL LE levels.
We have provided a member in the ROPES.COBLIB library called OBOOKSIN.
You can edit and run this job to upgrade your ROPES COBOL copy
books whenever one of these conditions occurs. The most common
symptoms are compilation errors.
OS/390 2.10 and z/OS users of SMTP please note: you may need to
apply the fix for APAR PQ55433 and/or UQ61702 to correct a problem
in SMTP that will cause the ROPES SMTP printer it to appear to
"hang."
RefWiz
RefWiz is compatible with all versions of OS/390 and z/OS, through z/OS 1.9. It is also compatible with all versions of DB2, IMS and CICS.
PILOT
PILOT/MVS
does not support Workload Manager in Goal mode at this time.
*Note: This restriction does not apply to PILOT/SMF-only customers.
SPI-TAB+
IMS
V7 requires V7 PTF UQ49732 work correctly. If not installed, the
SPITAB+ Batch Interface will report unusual errors in BMPs, such
as: DFS1041 ABNORMAL TERMINATION - STATUS CODE DHxx. Please note
that the PTF is required even if you are not using the various
optional features that it appears to address.
SmartAnalyzer
SmartAnalyzer
for HSM requires DFSMShsm running under OS/390 or z/OS.
SmartAnalyzer

(CONTROL-T) release 5.0.0 and above, or any other additional TMS
product (such as RMM) maintaining cassette/tape information in
the MVS Volume Catalog (SYS1.VOLCAT).
All versions
require SmartProduction release 3.6.0 and
above in trial or license mode.
