About the Health Checker

The IBM Health Checker for z/OS identifies potential problems in your z/OS environment by checking system or product parameters and system status against recommended settings. The IBM Health Checker for z/OS is structured as a framework that includes a health check started task and various separate check routines provided by IBM or other vendors. CA 1 provides health checks for CTAPOPTN settings, definitions, or real-time processing conditions that could result in a problem. When these conditions are found, the CA 1 checks provide detailed recommendations on how to correct the problem. The CA 1 health checks also recommend best practices for using CA 1.
