Beginning with NetView® for OS/390® Release 3, the NetView Management Console (NMC) can be run in "demo" mode without an NMC Server or NetView for OS/390 or NetView for z/OS® attached to provide the graphical views. The Server data is simulated by saving this information on the NMC Console machine. The demo is based on NetView for z/OS V5R1.
Demo Requirements
- PC with Windows 2000, Windows XP, or Windows Server 2003.
- Pentium II 233 MHz with 128MB RAM preferred minimum platform.
The NetView Management Console Demonstration is available in a self-extracting WINZIP format: Download duinmccw.exe. (34MB)
The complete demonstration instructions are available here.
Run the "duinmccw.exe" file. This self-extracting EXE file allows you to specify where the files will be installed. Select "Custom" install. Ensure "NMC Productivity Kit" is selected. The install process will then create the required directory structure and unpack the files.
Icons named "NMC Topology Console", "NMC Demo", and "NMC Productivity Kit" will be created on your Desktop.
Options
The demo files are generally very large, and require a high-speed connection to work properly. If you are concerned about your connection speed, we recommend that you download the files and run them locally.
The demos and their scripts require certain plug-ins, which are available for free download from the links below.
