The IBM Z platform is complex, but comes with many powerful, interactive controls via the Hardware Management Console (HMC) and Support Element (SE) to be able to control the hardware configuration of your Z infrastructure. Many times, however, a more automated approach is required to modify the configuration, reboot a hardware partition (LPAR), and much more. z/OS provides a programmable interface via z/OS BCPii that can make most of the complexities of hardware configuration a whole lot more manageable. Come to this session to learn about how z/OS BCPii works, what products use it today, what use cases clients are using BCPii for, and how you can leverage its capabilities to automate much of your hardware configuration tasks.
