zPRO has many features to greatly improve the productivity of mainframe systems programmers by condensing complex tasks into simple "point and click" operations.

zDIRECT is one of the components of zPRO built for maintaining the z/VM directory. The z/VM directory can be confusing to update and maintain, zDIRECT simplifies this process.

Features and Benefits:

• zDIRECT can be used on its own instead of Dirmaint (IBM) or VM:Secure (Broadcom)
• zDIRECT is part of zPRO at no extra charge
• zDIRECT is non-intrusive and maintains the directory intact to allow for manual directory updates if desired
• zDIRECT includes a Command Line Interface to allow for directory management from CMS userids
• zDIRECT is secure. Both currently available External Security Managers (ESMs) - RACF (IBM) and VM:Secure (Broadcom) are fully supported and additional management functions are also included.

zDIRECT can be used in place of IBM's Dirmaint or Broadcom's VM:Secure Directory Manager.
