IBM Z System Automation 4.3 Implementation and Administration
Demo Test
@Demo_Test
In this course, you learn how to define automation policy for IBM Z System Automation (SA for z/OS). You learn how to create policy definitions for systems, applications, application groups, and monitor resources. This is delivered in an environment with multiple opportunities for hands-on lab exercises. You define automation policy for several environments: single system and multiple system within a basic sysplex. The system automation manager and automation agent run in a z/OS 2.4 environment. The automation platform, IBM Z Netview is at version 6 release 4 and IBM Z System Automation is at version 4 release 3.
