Scenario QCF10: Configuring a sharing-with-SMP/E runtime environment with a hub monitoring server
A sharing-with-SMP/E runtime environment (RTE) contains LPAR-specific libraries
and references the read-only target libraries managed by SMP/E. Because an RTE that shares the SMP/E
target libraries is updated when the SMP/E maintenance is applied, a sharing-with-SMP/E
configuration is good for testing maintenance before other RTEs are updated. It is also good for a
proof-of-concept configuration. Because the RTE contains a hub monitoring server, it can operate by
itself and show data immediately. However, you do not want this type of RTE in a production
environment, because you do not want maintenance to be applied without testing.
You can
use the IBM-provided model profile @MDLHSS to configure this RTE or you can configure it from
scratch.
Before you begin
About this task
If you do not want to maintain this RTE after you have completed testing or proof of concept, you can delete the RTE or reconfigure it to a different sharing type. You can also reconfigure the monitoring server from a hub to a remote.
