BMC AMI Storage Allocation

The architecture of BMC AMI Storage Allocation comprises several key components. The Allocation Engine is responsible for processing dataset allocation requests, handling parameter overrides, and enforcing allocation policies. The Configuration Manager manages allocation rules, policies, and system settings.

The Reporting Module provides detailed reports on dataset usage, allocation statistics, and performance metrics. These components communicate using z/OS internal mechanisms. The product utilizes z/OS datasets for storing configuration data and operational logs.

There are no specific external database dependencies. Network requirements are minimal, primarily involving communication within the z/OS environment. The product integrates with ISMF for dataset management tasks.

The Allocation Engine interacts with DFSMS to manage datasets. The Configuration Manager allows administrators to define allocation policies. The Reporting Module provides insights into dataset usage and allocation trends.

The product supports various dataset types, including VSAM and sequential datasets. The product's architecture is designed for high availability and scalability. The product's design facilitates efficient dataset management and resource optimization.

The product's components work together to provide a comprehensive solution for dataset allocation and management.
