Requirements - Operate z/OS Data Sets and UNIX Files¶
To use the modules and roles which supplied to interact with z/OS data set and file REST services in your playbook, besides the Overall Requirements, the following nodes require specific versions of software:
Managed Node:
z/OS Management Facility: V02.03.00 or later
The z/OS data set and USS file managed by each z/OS managed node can be accessed by at least one z/OSMF server. Typically, this could be done by setup one z/OSMF in the same sysplex.
It is required when using:
module: zmf_dataset_fetch
module: zmf_file_fetch
module: zmf_dataset_copy
module: zmf_file_copy
Note
To use the encoding function (by variable dataset_encoding or file_encoding) for modules: zmf_dataset_fetch, zmf_file_fetch, zmf_dataset_copy and zmf_file_copy, it also requires: z/OSMF APAR PH15263 (PTF UI65882 for V2R3, PTF UI65883 for V2R4)
To use the create-like function (by variable dataset_model) for module: zmf_dataset_copy, it also requires: z/OSMF APAR PH22030 (PTF UI68974 for V2R3, PTF UI68975 for V2R4)
