The Operation chapter explains the activities involved in
operating CA MICS and how to perform them. The chapter is
made up of the following sections:
1 - Overview: Introduces you to the logic behind CA MICS
operations (why things must be done).
2 - Guidelines: Provides task lists for operational
processes (what things must be done).
3 - Reference: Provides details that help you perform each
task (how to do the things that must be
done).
4 - Administration: Discusses administrative tasks the
System Administrator needs to perform.
5 - CA MICS Data Integration: Describes the integration of
CA MICS data with NSM.
6 - NSM Data Integration: Describes the integration of NSM
data with CA MICS.
7 - CA MICS Data Transfer: Provides instructions for
installing the CA MICS Data Transfer
Utility.
8 - CA MICS Documentation Conversion: Provides instructions
for converting the CA MICS documentation to
a Web viewable format.
You should read the Overview section before continuing with
CA MICS installation. The Overview section introduces you to
operational facilities and concepts.
The Operational Guidelines section is a high level guide or
road map to CA MICS production operation. You should browse
the Operational Guidelines right after reading the Overview.
Then refer to the Operational Guidelines whenever you perform
CA MICS operational processing or recovery.
Use the Reference section when you need more information.
The Operational Guidelines will instruct you to perform a
task. The Reference will tell you exactly what must be done.
The Administration section is both an overview and a
reference for CA MICS administration activities. You should
browse the Administration section and then use it as a
reference when you perform administrative activities.
If your site uses NSM for network management, Sections 5, 6,
and 7 will help you to exploit the tools provided with CA
MICS for integrating NSM data and CA MICS data. Section 5
describes how you can add CA MICS data to your NSM
processing. Section 6 explains how NSM data can be
integrated into CA MICS processing. Section 7, as stated
above, provides instructions for installing the CA MICS Data
Transfer utility.
If your site uses USS and HFS facilities, section 8 will
help you make CA MICS documentation available via Web
Browser (e.g., Internet Explorer or Netscape).
