Preface

The complexity of BS2000 processing has been reduced by breaking BS2000 system down into functional units (subsystems). SSCM and DSSM are the two software products with which all subsystems are declared and managed.

The static subsystem catalog (SSMCAT) is managed with SSCM (Static Subsystem Catalog Management). The declarations required for all subsystems belonging to a configuration are stored in the subsystem catalog. SSMCAT forms the database for DSSM.

DSSM (Dynamic Subsystem Management) is the central instance in a BS2000 system for dynamic subsystem management.
