TSF HSM Manager

The architecture of TSF HSM Manager is designed for high availability and scalability within a z/OS environment. The main components include the HSM Manager, the Automation Engine, the Reporting Module, and the Configuration Database. The HSM Manager acts as the central control point, interacting directly with DFSMShsm.

The Automation Engine provides a scripting environment for automating complex tasks and workflows. The Reporting Module collects and analyzes data, providing detailed insights into system performance. The Configuration Database stores all configuration parameters and settings.

Communication between components occurs primarily through z/OS system services and internal APIs. The Configuration Database utilizes VSAM for data storage, ensuring data integrity and performance. Network requirements include TCP/IP for API communication and access to the z/OS system.

Security is implemented through RACF, with RBAC providing granular control over user access. The product supports encryption for sensitive data, ensuring data confidentiality and integrity. The system is designed to integrate seamlessly with existing z/OS infrastructure, providing a robust and scalable solution for HSM management.
