Our Purpose

2

The MVS Core Technologies Project is concerned with a broad spectrum

of mainframe-related topics that provide in-depth exploration of IBM's

flagship platform in both the hardware and software realms. Hardware

areas of interest include System z processor, zBX/blades,

HMC/zManager, coupling facilities, time services, and I/O connectivity.

Software areas of interest include z/OS operating system components,

subsystems and applications such as RSM, VSM, IOS, Parallel Sysplex,

JES2, JES3, TSO/E, ISPF, z/OS UNIX, zFS, Ported Tools, z/OSMF, and

enterprise presentation solutions such as Infoprint. Advanced sessions will

discuss architecture, installation, configuration, migration, service, problem

determination, and exploitation of the latest System z and z/OS

capabilities. Tools such as ServerPac, HCD/HCM, SMP/E, IPCS, and

others are regularly discussed. The Project also offers sessions for those

who are new to the platform, intended to help them quickly integrate into

their environment and acquire mainframe skills and understanding of the

platform, especially in z/OS.
