Attention z/OS asset managers and operations personnel! Are you getting the most value from the extensive information captured and managed by IBM Z Software Asset Management (IZSAM, formerly known as TADz)? In this hands-on interactive session, we'll take you through exercises that demonstrate how to leverage the information within IZSAM to help you manage the software running in your environment(s). You'll better understand how to make IZSAM benefit your organization, whether that be avoiding dead/redundant software costs, preventing SLA/audit compliance issues, or staying on top of key software updates. Make sure to bring your own laptop or tablet and use your favourite browser to learn how to make the most out of the extensive information reported by the IZSAM Analyzer web application.
