Resiliency: Integrate with the IBM z/OS Health Checker #2121

Open balhar-jakub opened 1 year ago

balhar-jakub commented 1 year ago

The IBM seems to provide IBM z/OS Health Checker functionality that can be used to verify the state of the service running on the z/OS. The tool can be used for auditing of services whether they are running well and/or are configured properly.

@dkelosky Can you please provide further information so we can have a better discussion on TSC? And I believe you want to be included in the conversations on the TSC.

Supplemental: A “Good” Health Check

● Reporting on a condition that can be corrected - e.g. cleared of exception status ● Provide specific info in health checks: ○ “Update product configuration...” vs. “Update x value member y found in data set z” ● Provide easy to follow, step by step instructions to correct exceptions ● For successful messages, explain what is set correct and why it makes everything alright ● Don’t ship product defaults that result in a health check exception

The agreement from the meeting was that we are interested in general but that we need to first understand better what exactly would it mean.
