Step 4. Customize the Product

Note: You may also use the SCS component of CA MSM to customize the product by adding system and stream definitions to the SCDS. If you want to do that, skip this step.

You can tailor CA SMF Director to your environment. If this is not an upgrade from a previous release, you can create a batch job to define the customized configuration of your system complex to CA SMF Director. For more information, see Chapter 2 in the User Guide and Customization Considerations in Chapter 1 of the Systems Programmer Guide.

If you are upgrading from a previous release of this product, the previous SCDS file is converted to the format needed by the new release. The previous configuration is copied intact.
