Issue/Introduction

What are the considerations while Upgrading to DRAS 12.1?

Resolution

Starting with release 11.6, DRAS became a SYSMOD packaged with View (as well as with Dispatch), so that View and DRAS could be upgraded at the same time (rather than the historic path of DRAS/View/Deliver).

The following DRAS SYSMODs are packaged, to be installed with View 12.1:

 . CBY3C10   DRAS base function 
 . CBY3C12   View DRAS Agent     
 . ASARB75   Optional SAS/C Runtime

If you use the OM Web Viewer products, the DRAS CBY3C10 SYSMOD is required, and CBY3C12 is required when the repository is View.

DRAS 12.1 has the following compatibilities:

 . Compatible at the 12.1 base level, with z/OS 2.1 and lower.
 . Compatible with OM Web Viewer 12.0 and higher.
 . Compatible with OM Web Viewer 11.5.

Common Services for z/OS should be installed or maintained at a currently supported maintenance level.
