MVS Systems Programming

MVS is IBM's strategic mainframe operating system, used in major enterprises throughout the world. MVS Systems Programming provides an overview of the specialist skills and knowledge that systems programmers require, as well as serving as a practical guide to their fundamental tasks. Although designed primarily as a readable introduction to the subject, the breadth of detailed information included in this book could only be acquired by years of 'on the job' experience. It will therefore also be a valuable reference source for practicing systems programmers and for associated staff who need to know the basics of this important operating system.

Every stage of the implementation of an MVS system, and the essential IBM systems software is covered, from installation through to maintenance, problem diagnosis, and disaster recovery, complete with practical information in every area.
