SMP/E
SMP/E provides the ability to install software products
and service either from DASD or tape, or directly from a
network source, such as the Internet. By installing directly
from a network source, SMP/E is enabling a more seam-
less integration of electronic software delivery and instal-
lation.
Advanced System Automation
The unique and rich functions of IBM Tivoli System Auto-
mation for OS/390 (SA OS/390) Version 2.2 (separately
orderable) can ease z/OS management, help reduce
costs, and increase application availability. SA OS/390
automates I/O, processor, and system operations, and
includes “canned” automation for IMS, CICS, Tivoli OPC,
and DB2. Its focus is on Parallel Sysplex automation,
including multi- and single-system confi gurations, and on
integration with end-to-end Tivoli enterprise solutions. With
the new patented manager/agent design, it is now pos-
sible to automate applications distributed over a sysplex
by virtually removing system boundaries for automation.
System Services benefi ts can include:
• Increased system availability
• Improved productivity of system programmers
• A more consistent approach for confi guring z/OS com-
ponents or products
• System setup and automation using best practices
which can greatly improve availability

RACF
Resource Access Control Facility (RACF) provides the
functions of authentication and access control for z/OS
resources and data, including the ability to control access
to DB2 objects using RACF profi les. Using an entity known
as the RACF user ID, RACF can identify users requesting
access to the system. The RACF user password (or valid
substitute, such as a RACF PassTicket or a digital certifi -
cate) authenticates the RACF user ID.
