This manual is intended for BS2000 system administrators who want to use IMON for software installation, to register software already installed in the system and to remove administrative information about software that is no longer needed.
Nonprivileged users can employ IMON to obtain information on the software to which they have access.
You should be familiar with BS2000 and the BS2000 components if you want to install software. See the “Introductory Guide to Systems Support” manual for more details [1 (Related publications )].
You should also be familiar with the BS2000 command language SDF (System Dialog Facility) and know the major SDF commands. Your sources of more detailed information on SDF are the manuals “SDF Dialog Interface” [2 (Related publications )] and “Commands” [4 (Related publications )].
You should also be familiar with the FHS masks and a menu-driven interface. See the manual “FHS” [9 (Related publications )] for details.
