The Advanced Backup and Recovery for z/OS product uses the Tivoli Monitoring Services infrastructure (also referred to as IBM Tivoli Monitoring, or Tivoli Management Services). The Tivoli Monitoring Services infrastructure provides security, data transfer and storage, notification mechanisms, user interface presentation, and communication services for products in the IBM Tivoli Monitoring and monitoring agents in an agent-server-client architecture (see Figure 1).
The components include:
Some components, such as Tivoli Enterprise Portal and the Tivoli Data Warehouse, run only on distributed operating systems (Windows, Linux, or UNIX). The Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Server can run on either distributed or mainframe systems. The Advanced Backup and Recovery for z/OS monitoring agent runs only on z/OS® systems.
The required versions of the Tivoli Monitoring Services infrastructure components are distributed with the Advanced Backup and Recovery for z/OS software.
