<strong>Migrating</strong> <strong>to</strong> z/OS <strong>R8</strong> <strong>Part</strong> 1 of 3: Get Ready<br />

security, and distributed time services. This element is at the Open Group<br />

Open Software Foundation (OSF) DCE 1.1 level.<br />

DCE Base Services uses the limited DES algorithm for encryption.<br />

Type: base element, exclusive.<br />

DFSMSdfp provides s<strong>to</strong>rage, data, program, and device management<br />

functions. Related optional features are DFSMSrmm (TM) , DFSMSdss (TM) ,<br />

DFSMShsm (TM) , and DFSMStvs.<br />

As of z/OS V1R3 and z/OS.e V1R3, the program management binder is<br />

moved <strong>to</strong> the BCP base element.<br />

Type: optional feature, exclusive, priced, can be dynamically enabled.<br />

DFSMSdss copies and moves data for backup and recovery, and <strong>to</strong> reduce<br />

free-space fragmentation.<br />

Type: optional feature, exclusive, priced, can be dynamically enabled.<br />

DFSMShsm provides au<strong>to</strong>mated DASD s<strong>to</strong>rage management, including<br />

space management for low and inactive data, and availability management<br />

for accidental data loss caused by local and site disasters. DFSMShsm also<br />

lets you make effective use of tape media.<br />

DFSMShsm requires DFSMSdss. For this reason, DFSMShsm is not<br />

available by itself. If you want <strong>to</strong> use DFSMShsm, you must order the<br />

DFSMShsm/DFSMSdss combination. (DFSMSdss is also available by itself<br />

for those who do not want DFSMShsm.)<br />

Type: optional feature, exclusive, priced, can be dynamically enabled.<br />

DFSMSrmm helps you manage your removable media as one<br />

enterprise-wide library across systems that can share DASD.<br />

Type: optional feature, exclusive, priced, can be dynamically enabled.<br />

DFSMS Transactional VSAM Services (DFSMStvs) enables batch jobs and<br />

CICS online transactions <strong>to</strong> update shared VSAM data sets concurrently.<br />

DFSMStvs was introduced in June 2003 as an optional feature of z/OS<br />

V1R4 and z/OS.e V1R4.<br />

Type: optional feature, exclusive, priced, can be dynamically enabled.<br />

DFSORT provides fast and easy sorting, merging, copying, reporting, and<br />

analysis of your business information, as well as versatile data handling at<br />

the record, field, and bit level. DFSORT also includes the high-performance<br />

ICEGENER facility, the versatile ICETOOL utility, Symbols, and multiple<br />

output capability with the powerful OUTFIL feature.<br />

As of z/OS V1R2, DFSORT is exclusive <strong>to</strong> z/OS because the product<br />

DFSORT V1R14 (5740-SM1) is no longer marketed.<br />

Type: base element, exclusive.<br />

Distributed File Service provides:<br />

w <strong>The</strong> DCE file serving (DFS (TM) ) component of the Open Group Open<br />

Software Foundation (OSF) DCE. <strong>The</strong> file serving support (the DFS<br />

client and server) is at the OSF 1.2.2 level.<br />

w <strong>The</strong> zSeries File System (zFS). <strong>The</strong> zFS is a UNIX file system that<br />

can be used in addition <strong>to</strong> the Hierarchical File System (HFS). zFS<br />

file systems contain files and direc<strong>to</strong>ries that can be accessed with<br />

the z/OS and z/OS.e hierarchical file system file APIs. zFS file<br />

systems can be mounted in<strong>to</strong> the z/OS UNIX hierarchy along with<br />

other local (or remote) file system types (such as HFS, TFS,<br />

AUTOMNT, and NFS). <strong>The</strong> zFS does not replace the HFS; it is<br />

complementary <strong>to</strong> the HFS. As of z/OS V1R7, you can use any<br />

combination of HFS and zFS file systems. zFS can be used for the<br />

root file system. Because zFS has higher performance characteristics<br />

than HFS and is the strategic file system, HFS might no longer be<br />
