BMC Certified Associate: AMI Storage IAM/PLEX 11.x for Storage Managers Online Exam

BMC AMI Storage IAM is a high-performance indexed access method for z/OS® that can be used in place of VSAM KSDS or VSAM ESDS datasets for batch, TSO, and online processing. IAM Record Level Sharing (IAM/RLS), an additional support function, allows multiple applications to concurrently share an IAM file within a single system/LPAR. IAM/PLEX builds on IAM/RLS to provide record level sharing support to IAM datasets across multiple LPARs within a z/OS Sysplex.

As a Storage Manager, knowledge about how IAM/RLS and IAM/PLEX will help you leverage the advantages that IAM offers. You will be able to set up and control IAM/RLS usage, manage multiple address spaces, use IAM/RLS and IAM/PLEX to perform journaling and recovery, and record lock recovery services, and also recover from LPAR outages.
