Product Overview

CA Dynam/FI is a system-level tool designed for zVSE/VSEn environments. It automates the modification of file allocation parameters, ensuring device independence for applications. The architecture consists primarily of an intercept routine that integrates directly with the zVSE/VSEn operating system's file allocation mechanisms.

This routine intercepts file allocation requests and modifies them transparently, eliminating the need for manual adjustments. The system leverages the security mechanisms of the zVSE/VSEn operating system for access control. Deployment typically involves installing the CA Dynam/FI components on the zVSE/VSEn system and configuring the intercept routines.

Ongoing operations include monitoring the system logs for any errors related to file allocation modifications. Alternatives include manual file allocation management or other file management utilities specific to zVSE/VSEn. However, CA Dynam/FI provides a more automated and transparent solution.
