System Requirements
As part of the 
Application Performance Management
 (CA Cross-Enterprise APM) solution, you have already installed CA Application Performance Management (CA APM).
For the integration of CA APM and 
CA SYSVIEW
® Performance Management (
CA SYSVIEW
), you require the following environment:
  • CA APM on a supported operating system
  • CA Cross-Enterprise APM and 
    CA SYSVIEW
     on the same z/OS system
For the integration of CA APM and 
CA SYSVIEW
 Performance Management Option for DB2 for z/OS (
CA SYSVIEW® Performance Management Option for DB2
), you require the following environment:
  • CA APM on a supported operating system
  • CA Cross-Enterprise APM and 
    CA SYSVIEW® Performance Management Option for DB2
     on the same z/OS system
Software Requirements
Before you install 
Application Performance Management
 (CA Cross-Enterprise APM), verify that you have met the following requirements for each component that you plan to enable.
The supported platforms (as applicable) are:
  • z/OS, JES2, and JES3: Version 1.13, or Version 2.1
  • UNIX System Services: Enabled
  • Java: 31-bit mode of Version 6, or Version 7
  • CA Common Services: Release 14.1

    CA SYSVIEW
     to enable the metrics, tab views, and dashboards for z/OS Alerts, z/OS Degradation Delay Analysis, z/OS Workload Manager Service Goals, CICS Alerts, CICS Degradation Analysis, and MQ Alerts. IBM APAR PI50364 is required for CICS TS 5.2. If the APAR is not applied, a transaction executing on a remote system as the result of an EXEC CICS LINK SYSID(sysid) request might wait on a short-on-storage condition at transaction completion.
     
    Application Performance Management
     supports the following software in those versions that are also supported by 
    CA SYSVIEW
    , providing that software is still supported by its own vendor. For information about
