What was the primary function of SDSI?
SDSI aimed to provide dataset and file sharing capabilities across MVS systems, eliminating the need for hardware RESERVEs. It functioned similarly to GRS, facilitating coordinated data access.
Can you describe the architecture of SDSI?
SDSI's architecture involved components for inter-system communication and resource management. These components coordinated access to datasets and files, ensuring data integrity across the MVS environment.
How was SDSI related to CA MIM, STAM, and SCON?
SDSI was eventually integrated into CA MIM, incorporating STAM (Shared Tape Allocation Manager) and SCON (Shared Console) functionalities. This integration provided a more comprehensive system management solution.
