IBM Z Software Asset Management 9.1
- PDF manual
- Program Directory
- Product overview
  IBM Z Software Asset Management is built on the concept of remote and central mainframe components which work together to produce reports on z/OS® mainframe products and their usage. This section provides you with a high-level overview of the IBM Z Software Asset Management core architecture.
- Planning for deployment
  Before you deploy IBM Z Software Asset Management , consider which deployment option is best suited to your environment.
- Implementing deployment scenarios
  Most implementations of IBM Z Software Asset Management are based on one of the common deployment scenarios. An example is provided for implementing each of these common deployment scenarios with a Db2® Repository database. You can adapt an example for use with an SQLite Repository database.
- Installing and customizing IBM Z Software Asset Management
  The product installation involves downloading the product and available updates, preparing the database, and configuring and populating a test database. After verifying that all components are correctly installed, you duplicate the test database to create a production database where you automate data collection and import tasks.
- Migrating to IBM Z Software Asset Management 9.1
  When you migrate to the latest version of IBM Z Software Asset Management 9.1 from an earlier version, you must convert existing data to be compatible with your new environment.
- Collecting and importing data with IBM Z Software Asset Management
  IBM Z Software Asset Management includes programs that collect system and usage data, import, filter, and match this data, update the Repository tables, and make the data available for review and query.
- Reporting with the Analyzer
  The primary reporting facility in IBM Z Software Asset Management is the Analyzer.
  - Analyzer prerequisites
    The Analyzer uses the Db2® Call Library Interface (ODBC/CLI), also used by the Inquisitor Import, Usage Import and other batch components, and the z/OS® socket application programming interface. For the SQLite database, the Analyzer uses an internal ODBC interface.
  - Analyzer JCLLIB and PARMLIB members
    Several JCLLIB and PARMLIB members are used when you run the Analyzer to generate reports.
  - Running the Analyzer in online mode
    The primary reporting facility in IBM Z Software Asset Management is the Analyzer. You can use the Analyzer in online mode to view reports, run queries, and drill down to related reports.
  - Running the Analyzer in batch mode
    If you want to automate report generation, you can run the Analyzer in batch mode.
- Running utilities
  IBM Z Software Asset Management provides utilities that you run to perform routine functional tasks to maintain the product lifecycle.
- REST API
- Configuring Language support
  IBM Z Software Asset Management includes Japanese language support for MVS™ Message Service (MMS) message information. You can also configure the Analyzer utility to create and view reports in Japanese.
- Reference information for IBM Z Software Asset Management
  Reference information includes messages, repository table layouts, and performance and tuning.
- Troubleshooting and support
  To isolate and resolve problems with your IBM software, you can use the troubleshooting, messages, and support information. This information contains instructions for using the problem determination resources that are provided with your IBM products.
- IBM Z Software Asset Management messages
  You can identify the type of message by the message prefix.
- Description of output message content
  Messages generated during batch processing are explained in detail here.

Analyzer JCLLIB and PARMLIB members

Several JCLLIB and PARMLIB members are used when you run the Analyzer to generate reports.

The members in the JCLLIB contain sample JCL to run the Analyzer.

Table 1. JCLLIB members for Analyzer
Member	Description
HSIJANLO	Analyzer PROC for online mode. Copy this PROC from the JCLLIB to a system PROCLIB data set to run the Analyzer as a started task
HSISANLB	Analyzer batch job for batch mode
HSISANLO	Analyzer batch job for online mode
HSISANS1	Define the Analyzer security profiles in RACF® (only applicable for Analyzer SECURITY=SYSTEM setting)
HSISANS2	Generate the Analyzer SSL certificate in RACF® (only applicable for Analyzer SECURITY=SYSTEM setting)
HSISANS3	Connect the Analyzer user ID to an existing SSL certificate in RACF® (only applicable for Analyzer SECURITY=SYSTEM setting)

The following members in the PARMLIB contain sample configuration settings for the Analyzer in online mode. These members are referenced with the TPARAM setting in the HSIJANLO PROC.

Table 2. PARMLIB members for Analyzer
Member	Description
HSISANP1	SECURITY=BASIC HTTP communications with basic security
HSISANP2	SECURITY=SYSTEM HTTPS (SSL encrypted) communications with z/OS system security (SAF/RACF) SECURITY=SYSTEM-TLS SSL encryption handled by AT-TLS configuration Refer to the HSISANS1, HSISANS2, and HSISANS3 members in JCLLIB for sample JCL to define RACF profiles/certificates.
