Abstract
Having a robust preventive maintenance process is a best practice in managing any IT environment including z/OS®. By avoiding known defects, which can have a major impact on the functioning of the system, preventive maintenance improves availability. Having a proactive preventive service strategy can reduce the number of rediscovered defects and help you avoid unplanned outages.

One of IBM Z System® with z/OS’s strengths is its tight integration of the technologies across the hardware, firmware, operating system and middleware. To continue that strength throughout the products’ lifecycle, IBM developed an additional test effort known as Consolidated Service Test (CST) and a recommended preventive maintenance strategy which is directly tied to this effort.
This paper reviews the concepts and tools available for servicing z/OS and IBM products running on the z/OS platform.
