Suite Resource Manager • Private / Shared / On Demand VPARs • Automation Resource Manager Resource User System www. tpfsoftware. com Automation § allocate VPARs on demand from VPARs pool § attach specified resources (like tape, osa) to a VPARS § pick up VPOPEN parameters from configuration file § dictate the commands to be executed in the VPARS § bring up the VPARS to a specific state (NORM, 1052) and keep it ready for dispatch 17

Suite Resource Manager: On Demand VPARs Client A Client B • Client A requests VPARs from pool • Worker A starts another worker A § which brings VPARs to norm state, then disconnects B • Worker A starts another worker V 2 VPARs Pool V 1 V 2 V 3 V 4 V 5 V 6 V 3 Legend Private § which gets another VPARs ready for dispatch, then disconnects • Client B requests VPARs from pool Worker Not Logged on NORM State (product is not activated) Ready for dispatch www. tpfsoftware. com V 4 • Worker B starts another worker § which finds a VPARs that is ready for dispatch in the pool, so uses it • Worker B starts another worker § which gets another VPARs ready for dispatch, then disconnects 18

Suite Connectivity Manager Remote Resource • TPF-to-TPF Function Server (z. TTFS) § provides access to remote resources § allows resources to be shared. Connectivity Manager • Requests for remote resources are intercepted and directed through a z/TPF server that has the actual remote links or connections www. tpfsoftware. com z. TTFS Client VPARS 1 z/TPF Server VPARS 3 z. TTFS Client VPARS 2 19
