Share Your ExperienceCA CMDB Connector for z/OS
Product Overview
The architecture of the CA CMDB Connector for z/OS comprised several key components. The z/OS client, running on the z/OS platform, was responsible for interacting with the CMDB server. The CMDB server, typically residing on a separate platform, stored the configuration data.
Communication between the z/OS client and the CMDB server occurred over TCP/IP. The z/OS client used configuration files to map z/OS resources to CMDB objects. The client initiated data synchronization, configuration updates, and queries using commands like `SYNC`, `UPDATE`, and `QUERY`.
Authentication was handled via RACF. The product is no longer supported; users should migrate to a supported CMDB solution. Consider alternatives like Micro Focus CMDB or BMC Helix CMDB, which offer similar functionality with modern features and support.
