Executing the Reporting Facility

This section describes the resource requirements needed for successful execution of the Reporting Facility system. The system provides many specialized facilities; therefore, proper and efficient use of the resources available is an important consideration.

The Reporting Facility runs in z/OS, VS, and z/VSE environments. Other minimum requirements that apply are:

• IBM 370 architecture
• Decimal arithmetic feature
• 3350, 3375, 3380, 3390, 9345, or FBA type disk drive
• 1400, 3200, or 3800 series printer
• IBM Sort/Merge program, or compatible sort program cataloged as "Sort"
• Minimum region/partition size of 80K
• Operating system generated with user program check exits:
  • STXIT for z/VSE
  • STAE/SPIE for z/OS

The Reporting Facility executes in multiple types of environments with varying configurations.
