Using the DFSMSrmm client and server systems z/OS DFSMSrmm Implementation and Customization Guide SC23-6874-00 |
|
This topic contains recommendations for using the client or server system. In order to manage a single tape inventory across multiple sysplexes where there is no shared DASD available, you can create one or more DFSMSrmm client systems. Any tape usage on a client system uses the server system to dynamically validate and record tape usage. If the server system is not available for any reason, for example, the IP connection is unavailable or fails, you cannot use tapes on the client system until the server is reconnected or restarted. All DFSMSrmm users on a client system can use the DFSMSrmm ISPF dialog, RMM TSO subcommands, and batch utilities, including use of DFSMSrmm API and High Level Language API. Recommendation: Users who need regular access
to DFSMSrmm data should log on to the server system. Storage administrators
and tape librarians should use a server system or an DFSMSrmm system
with direct access to the control data set except when there is a
specific reason for using a client system.
