    Dear SA z/OS users,
     
    not everybody might have seen an announcement which IBM made in 2017. Here is the information.
     

    We want to make you aware that IBM has announced the following Statement of Direction for IBM System Automation for z/OS in 2017:

     

    Announcement Letter:  https://www-01.ibm.com/common/ssi/ShowDoc.wss?docURL=/common/ssi/rep_ca/0/897/ENUS217-270/index.html&request_locale=en 


    Statement of general direction

    IBM intends to discontinue System Automation for z/OS support for collecting automation data using the Monitoring Agent and feeding that data into the Tivoli Enterprise Portal (TEP).

     

    As a replacement, IBM recommends to use Service Management Unite which is part of IBM System Automation for z/OS V4.1.0 to monitor the health of your automation environment and to manage it.

     

    Kind regards,

      Wiltrud Rebmann
