7.6.1 IMSplex components related to RM
The IMSplex components related to RM include:
RM address space
– At least 1 RM required in IMSplex defined with CSL
– 1 RM on each z/OS system best for performance
– Only one RM allowed in IMSplex with no resource structure
Common Service Layer address spaces
– At least 1 Operations Manager (OM) required in IMSplex
– Structured Call Interface (SCI) required on each z/OS system
RM clients (IMS subsystems)
– Each IMS DB/DC, DCCTL, or DBCTL subsystem is a client
Coupling Facility list structure (resource structure)
– Resource structure contains global resources (optional)
Common Queue Server (CQS)
– Required if resource structure is defined
– RM registers to one CQS that must reside in the same system (LPAR)
