GSE UK Conference 2007

"Virtually Yourz"

Abstract:

IMS 9 is the last version of IMS to support SMU security, and IMS 10 contains no SMU functions at all. To reduce the effort involved in migrating off SMU, IBM has produced a set of seven utilities which are used to convert SMU source into equivalent RACF specifications, and to update the IMS Stage 1 source if appropriate. This session will review the functions of SMU and their RACF equivalent solutions, and discuss how the new utilities are used in each case
