Create a Non-sysplex System

A non-sysplex is a stand-alone z/OS system that is not part of a sysplex or a monoplex system.

You can use non-sysplex systems as target systems for product configurations.

Follow these steps:

1. Click the System Registry tab, and in the Actions section click the Create Non-Sysplex System link.

   The New Non-Sysplex System dialog appears.

2. Enter the following information, and click Save:

   Name

   Enter the non-sysplex system name.

   Limits: Eight characters

   Note: Sysplex and non-sysplex systems can have the same name. Use the Description field to differentiate between these systems.

   Description

   Enter the description.

   Limits: 255 characters

   CAICCI System ID

   (Optional) Enter the CAICCI system ID.

   Limits: Eight characters

   Note: The CAICCI system ID is a unique name for a system that is part of a CAICCI network. If you do not specify one, CA CSM obtains it using a validate action.

   The non-sysplex system is saved, and its name appears in the non-sysplex system list on the left.

3. Detail the nonstaging system.

Important! z/OS systems running under VM are treated as being in BASIC mode and not LPAR mode. As a result, the LPAR number is null in the z/OS control block. When the LPAR number is null, the system validation output shows the following message:

Property Name: z/OS LPAR Name, Value: ** Not Applicable **.
