2 VM/ESA – Keeping You Informed
About This Booklet
There are many different and varied sources of information for VM/ESA. This is good, because different people need different kinds of information. On the other hand, so many sources sometimes make it difficult to actually find what you need. That’s the main rea-son why we produced this booklet – to help you find information about VM/ESA as quick-ly and as efficiently as possible.
Two main audiences are targeted:
❑ People who need an overview to VM and its functions. Managers or decision makers could, for example, fit in this category.
❑ People who need specific technical information or assistance. System pro-grammers come to mind here.
This booklet provides you with information for topics like:
❑ Internet sites related to VM
❑ Opportunities for communication with IBM or other VM users
❑ IBM publications
It does not contain technical details about VM/ESA.
The facing page shows how you can contact us. We would like that, especially if you know of other information sources which we have missed. Please do not hesitate to con-tact us so that so that we can include this source in any future update.

Year 2000 Home Pages http://www.ibm.com/ibm/year2000/
IBM recognizes that the turn of the century poses an unprecedented challenge for the Information Technology industry, where a two-digit date representation was the industry norm. With the Year 2000 it is important that customers have assessed, have planned, and are implementing changes to address any transitional challenges. IBM is taking action on behalf of its customers, to assist in their Year 2000 readiness.
To help customers understand and prepare for the Year 2000 issue, IBM has an Internet site: http://www.ibm.com/ibm/year2000/. It contains information about the readiness of specific IBM products, general background on the Year 2000 issue, and related infor-mation. IBM continually adds information to the site.

VM/ESA Customer Conference Callshttp://www.ibm.com/s390/events/
The IBM Enterprise Connection Conference Call Series makes it easy to keep up with the latest developments on VM and other enterprise-level technology. You only need a phone to participate. Each hour-long call features an expert on the topic at hand - a developer, specialist, consultant, or customer. The call begins with a presentation which is usually followed by a question and answer session that you can participate in.
While all these calls are offered at no-charge, you must register to attend, (dial 1-800-289-0583, and outside the U.S. and Canada, 719-457-2550). Upon enrollment, you will receive a dial-in number for the call and a choice of easy options for receiving your pre-sentation handouts for use during the call.
Upcoming Calls in Second-half 1999This is a list of proposed VM calls for the second-half of 1999:
❑ VM Application Development Hints and Tips❑ VM/ESA Release Update and Customer Experiences❑ Data Management and Business Intelligence with VM/ESA❑ Getting More From e-business with VM/ESA
Please note that this schedule and topics are subject to change, so please check this Web site for the very latest information on this call series: http://www.ibm.com/s390/events/
You can enroll for calls from the Web site, view call presentations, or view a list of previ-ously held calls that can be requested on audio tape. And new in 1999, you can request audio replay.

Audio Replay
If you miss a call, you can listen to the audio replay over the Internet. Just go to the Web site shown above, and look under "previously held conference calls" to see the IBM Enterprise Connection Presentation Library.
The use of this new service requires that you check-in before entering the library. Thus you will have to register beforehand. We will post previously held calls for up to six months, and most replays will be posted within 72 hours of the call date. In the library, you can see the presentation by clicking on the PDF icon. To listen, click on the Audio Replay icon. (If you don't have RealAudio installed, you can click to download it.)

IBM Redbookshttp://www.ibm.com/redbooks/
IBM Redbooks are developed and published by IBM's International Technical Support Organization, the ITSO. With headquarters in Poughkeepsie (New York), the ITSO oper-ates centers associated with key IBM development Divisions in Austin, Poughkeepsie, Raleigh, Rochester, and San Jose. The ITSO develops and delivers skills, technical know-how, and materials to technical professionals of IBM, Business Partners, custom-ers, and to the marketplace generally.
IBM Redbooks typically provide positioning and value guidance, installation and imple-mentation experiences, typical solution scenarios, and step-by-step “how-to” guide-lines. They often include sample code and other support materials that are also available as downloads from this site.
IBM Redbooks are available as hardcopy books, in a wide assortment of orderable CD-ROMs including the collection for S/390-related Redbooks: SK2T-2177-19, S/390 Red-books Collection, and on the Internet at http://www.ibm.com/redbooks . This web site contains additional information on availability and ordering of IBM Redbooks. In addtion to the IBM Redbooks, also available are IBM Redpieces, works-in-progress that normally are published as IBM Redbooks when completed, and IBM Redpapers, technical docu-ments that are more focused at specific topics than customary for Redbooks.

❑ VM/ESA Network Computing with Java and NetRexx, SG24-5148-00 This redbook describes how to install and configure both Java and NetRexx using the IBM provided installation files and scripts. It also covers a selection of VM tools that make using NetRexx and Java easier and less trouble-prone to the applications developer. There is a detailed comparison of NetRexx to classic REXX to help guide VM/REXX programmers through the similarities and differences and introduce them to the novel capabilities of NetRexx. Also included are hints and tips on good NetRexx design and wealth of examples of NetRexx application programming techniques in the CMS environment. The complete set of sample programs developed during the residency are available in the VM Download Library in a package called SG24-5148 (description).
❑ VM/ESA Year2000 Migration - A Case Study, SG24-2042This Redbook is based on real customer environments, as opposed to the traditional lab environment. The VM/ESA V2.2.0 test sytem came from the Government of Brit-ish Columbia, Canada, and the VM/ESA V1.2.2 system to be migrated came from Telecom, New Zealand. Both sys-tems encompass several IBM and non-IBM products, giv-ing this Case Study even more credibility and usability.
❑ Exploiting Recent CMS Function: A User's Guide to CMS Application Multitasking, SG24-5164-00CMS Application Multitasking has been an integral part of CMS since CMS level 9 (VM/ESA Version 1 Release 2.0); however, many CMS programmers, particularly REXX programmers, have not yet learned how to take advan-tage of the highly significant and useful functions, such as event, queue and timer services, that this suite of APIs provides. The intent of this redbook is to provide an approachable, introductory user's guide that addresses these concerns by offering both tutorial information on the capabilities and useful sample programs that installations can readily adapt to meet local needs.Programs used during the residency are available in the VM download library in the SG24-5164 package.
