Searching the Help
To search for information in the Help, type a word or phrase in the Search box. When you enter a group of words, OR is inferred. You can use Boolean operators to refine your search.
Results returned are case insensitive. However, results ranking takes case into account and assigns higher scores to case matches. Therefore, a search for "cats" followed by a search for "Cats" would return the same number of Help topics, but the order in which the topics are listed would be different.
Search for | Example | Results |
---|---|---|
A single word | cat
|
Topics that contain the word "cat". You will also find its grammatical variations, such as "cats". |
A phrase. You can specify that the search results contain a specific phrase. |
"cat food" (quotation marks) |
Topics that contain the literal phrase "cat food" and all its grammatical variations. Without the quotation marks, the query is equivalent to specifying an OR operator, which finds topics with one of the individual words instead of the phrase. |
Search for | Operator | Example |
---|---|---|
Two or more words in the same topic |
|
|
Either word in a topic |
|
|
Topics that do not contain a specific word or phrase |
|
|
Topics that contain one string and do not contain another | ^ (caret) |
cat ^ mouse
|
A combination of search types | ( ) parentheses |

Overview
Many enterprise applications span mainframe and distributed (Linux/UNIX/Windows) environments. Sometimes the level of mainframe involvement is light (for example, only for backend database solutions), while at other times the mainframe can host more than the distributed side (for example, running through queues, middle-tier applications, and multiple mainframe subsystems).
The goal of HPE Data Flow Management (DFM) is to properly map applications across the infrastructure, regardless of where those applications reside. There are normally three parts to mapping an application across the infrastructure:
-
Discovering the infrastructure
-
Discovering the application
-
Mapping the application dependencies
The current discovery solution covers the first two parts on the mainframe by discovering z/OS host and network resources, as well as applications such as DB2, IMS, CICS, and MQ.
The Mainframe by EView discovery is an agent-based discovery solution. It uses an application called EView/390z Discovery for z/OS to discover the Mainframe topology.
For more information about the discovery mechanism, see Discovery Mechanism.
To run the discovery, see How to Discover Mainframe by EView.
