Chapter 2 Installation : Requirements

Requirements
Before installation, ensure that Hawk and Rendezvous are active within your network.
Storage Requirements
The installed product requires approximately 100 cylinders of Direct-Access Storage Device (DASD) space, the calculation for which is based on an IBM 3390 DASD device.
System Software Requirements
The Tracker Server runs as an authorized subsystem of z/OS MVS and works on z/OS version 1.8 and above.
Language Environment
The Tracker Server uses the IBM Language Environment (LE) on z/OS, hence the LE component must be available where you execute TIBCO Mainframe Service Tracker components.
Do the following:
1.
Enable the SMF exits IEFUJI and IEFACTRT.
2.
In addition, you must provide the LE libraries required for compilation of Installation Verification Program (IVP) samples. User applications do not require the LE when invoking the Tracker Server. However, user programs that use the product interfaces must be LE-compliant.
TIBCO Messaging
TIBCO messaging or the Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) are not required on z/OS for the delivery of event or status information. TIBCO Mainframe Service Tracker communicates with the designated Hawk HMA through TCP/IP and Rendezvous either on or off the host.
TIBCO Hawk Microagent (HMA) and the primary TIBCO Hawk Application Management Interface (AMI) session communicate through Rendezvous.
Web Interface
With Mainframe WebUI, you can subscribes to the Rendezvous messages published by TIBCO Mainframe Service Tracker for MVS job messages, alert messages, and SYSLOG messages. For details, see the TIBCO Mainframe WebUI Installation and Administration manual.
