10.Run the customized member S1COPY to copy the customizable members to a non- SMP/E controlled data set.

Important: You must modify the S1COPY JCL line that contains step "//IN1" for the DSN parameter. Change the default sample data set STKSAMP to the VSM GUI sample data set ENSAMP.

When the copy has successfully completed, there will be a new data set, STKPARM, to which you can apply your site customization. Refer to the data set members SKUPROC and SKUPRM00 for sample templates to use.

APF Authorize the VSM GUI Libraries

In addition to the NCS libraries, APF authorize the VSM GUI load library STKLOAD and the SSARRTNS library by any of the following methods:

Dynamically authorize the load library by using the MVS SETPROG APF,ADD,DSNAME operator command.

Dynamically authorize the load library by:

Adding the load library to the MVS parameter library PROGxx member. For example:

SYS1.PARMLIB(PROG00)

Issuing the MVS SET PROG=xx operator command.

(Recommended) Permanently authorize the load library by:

Adding the VSM GUI load libraries to the MVS parameter library members IEAAPFxx or PROGxx. For example:

SYS1.PARMLIB(IEAAPF00)

OR

SYS1.PARMLIB(PROG00)

IPLing the system.

Customize the VSM GUI Startup Proc

To create the VSM GUI startup procedure, modify STKPARM member SKUPROC as described in the JCL comments and add the procedure to the production PROCLIB.

Caution – The VSM GUI startup procedure must specify the active HSC CDS, otherwise the active CDS can be updated with incorrect values from the secondary or standby CDS.

VSM GUI specifications

Sun Microsystems’ Virtual Storage Manager (VSM) Graphical User Interface (GUI) is a powerful tool designed to facilitate the management of storage resources in enterprise environments. The VSM GUI provides a user-friendly interface that simplifies complex storage operations, making it an essential component for administrators tasked with optimizing data storage and retrieval.

One of the main features of the VSM GUI is its intuitive layout, which allows users to navigate through various storage management functions with ease. The interface includes dashboard views that provide a comprehensive overview of storage utilization, performance metrics, and operational status. This quick access to critical information enables administrators to make informed decisions and respond proactively to storage-related issues.

Another significant characteristic of the VSM GUI is its robust reporting capabilities. Users can generate detailed reports on storage resource allocation, usage patterns, and overall system performance. These reports can help identify potential bottlenecks and allow for better capacity planning, ensuring that storage resources align with organizational needs.

The VSM GUI is built on modern web technologies, providing flexibility and accessibility. This web-based architecture enables users to manage their storage infrastructure from any device with internet access, whether in the office or on the move. The GUI supports integration with other management tools and systems, enhancing its functionality and allowing for streamlined workflows.

Security is a critical aspect of the VSM GUI, and Sun Microsystems has implemented several measures to safeguard sensitive data. User authentication and role-based access control ensure that only authorized personnel can perform specific operations. Additionally, audit trails are maintained to monitor user activities, providing an extra layer of accountability.

Furthermore, the VSM GUI supports automation features that facilitate routine tasks such as data backup, replication, and recovery processes. By automating these operations, administrators can focus on more strategic initiatives rather than spending valuable time on repetitive tasks.

In summary, Sun Microsystems’ VSM GUI combines an intuitive design with powerful features to provide a comprehensive storage management solution. With its emphasis on usability, reporting, security, and automation, it is an invaluable tool for organizations looking to optimize their storage infrastructure while minimizing operational overhead. The VSM GUI exemplifies how effective technology can enhance data management processes within enterprise environments.
