Stream: Storage Management
Time: 11:45 - 12:45
Did you know that IBM introduced two new DFSMS cloud offerings? 1) DFSMScdm Cloud Data Manager to move cold HSM ML2 data to the cloud. 2) GDKUTIL a new free utility that can read or write data to the cloud with no additional hardware or software cost. GDKUTIL is based on the new Cloud Data Access method known as CDA. This new access method and its new utility can be used to share z/OS data with other cloud based applications. In this session we will go over how DFSMScdm is used for cold HSM ML2 data. Then we will go over how CDA is configured with an emphasis on the non-z/OS cloud related steps. And we will wrap up with how GDKUTIL can be used for data sharing in the cloud with some use cases that demonstrate device indepenence for cloud object storage.
