As mentioned in the preview announcement, the z/OS Management Facility Version 2.1 will move to the WebSphere Liberty Profile. The WebSphere Application Server OEM prereq will be removed. You can read more about the WebSphere Liberty Profile here:
https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/mydeveloperworks/blogs/wasdev/entry/liberty_profile_z_os_quick_start_guide11?lang=en In short, it'll be simpler, easier, and quicker to install the z/OSMF and to get it up and running. (Not that it's difficult now.) Also, it'll be more resource efficient, and it'll start up more quickly. Yes, the WebSphere Liberty Profile is available for your applications, too. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Timothy Sipples Consulting Enterprise IT Architect (Based in Singapore) E-Mail: [email protected] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
