CAIRIM

The CAI Resource Initialization Manager (CAIRIM) is the common driver for a collection of dynamic initialization routines that eliminate the need for user SVCs, SMF exits, subsystems, and other installation requirements commonly encountered when installing system software. CAIRIM includes the following features:

• Obtaining SMF data
• Verification of proper software installation
• Installation of z/OS interfaces
• Automatic startup of CA and other vendor products
• Proper timing and order of initialization
