Abstract

This redbook is written for people who are planning to convert from a vendor tape management system to DFSMSrmm. We have designed this book to help you with all aspects of the conversion, from the early planning stage through customization and production implementation of DFSMSrmm. Use it to decide whether to convert to DFSMSrmm, and then use it to plan and execute that conversion. It provides you with enough information to prepare a plan for conversion and then takes you step by step through that plan. We provide details on the differences between DFSMSrmm and vendor tape management systems and compare the terminology, data, and functions. We explain how to use the IBM-supplied sample conversion programs and get the converted data validated and ready for use in a production environment. Working samples that are ready for use both during and after conversion are included.
