          The Role-based Resource Manager adds a layer of security for accessing system resources.

      • Using the Remote Build feature

        The Remote Build feature submits build requests from DevOps Code ClearCase® client platforms running on Windows®, Linux®, and the UNIX® system to z/OS® (MVS™ and z/OS UNIX System Services). This feature consists of both server and client components.

      • Using the TSO Client feature

        Use the TSO Client feature to perform DevOps Code ClearCase® operations on the distributed system without leaving the mainframe system environment.

      • Managing builds with impact analysis

        z/OS® Extensions provides impact analysis tools that you can use to manage COBOL, PL/I, and High Level Assembler (HLASM) builds.

      • Using the TSO Client API

        The TSO Client API enables you to perform Remote Build functionality by using a TSO Client API application. Use the TSO Client API to create your own custom TSO Client calls to a distributed system running DevOps Code ClearCase®.

      • Using the ClearCase® Repository Access Manager

        ClearCase® Repository Access Manager (CCRAM) provides a seamless interface that enables those who use IBM® Rational® Developer for System z® to access assets stored in ClearCase.

      • Automating builds with parameterized build scripts

        Parameterized build is a script-based, sample-driven approach to automating Remote Build scripts. It provides you with sample scripts that you can use as a starting point for developing your own approach to automating Remote Build scripts. These sample scripts are provided as-is and require customization and alteration before they can be used in your z/OS® Extensions environment.
