Issue/Introduction

Planning a Z/OS upgrade but not running the latest version of Solve/Netmaster Management Services. Where can this product be downloaded?

Environment

Release: 8.1, 7.1, 6.7

Component: NetMaster Management Services (NMS)

Resolution

Management Services is NOT a separate product but is installed to "support" other Broadcom products, like Solve:Access, Solve:Operation and the NetMaster suite. Each of these products has its own release of Management Services, so, currently there are three supported versions of Management Services:

  • Management Services 8.1 running with NetMaster 12.2
  • Management Services 7.1 running with Solve:Operations Automation 11.9
  • Management Services 6.7 running with Solve:Access 5.0

When checking the compatibility of Management Services with the new z/OS release using this link, you actually need to check the compatibility of the product that use Management Services.

For example, on z/OS 2.4 you can run Management Services 7.1 if it's used by Solve:Operations Automation 11.9 or Management Services 6.7 if it's used by Solve:Access 5.0.
