Overview

IBM Software Configuration and Library Manager (SCLM) performs both library and software configuration management and is an industry standard software configuration management (SCM) tool that ships as part of z/OS®. Add-on components such as IBM Breeze for SCLM, IBM Enhanced Access Control for SCLM, IBM Merge Tool, and IBM SCLM Suite Administrator Workbench have been developed over the years in order to assist developers to easily approve packages, implement augmented security controls, run three-way merges, and simplify the administration of SCLM-based projects. The SCLM Suite Administrator Workbench and a new product, IBM SCLM Developer Toolkit, offer both SCLM developers as well as administrators an easy-to-use Eclipse-based interface. Both products can be installed either as stand-alone products or as plug-ins to an existing IBM Eclipse-based tooling such as Rational® Application Developer for WebSphere® Software, formerly known as WebSphere Studio Application Developer (WSAD), or WebSphere Developer for zSeries®, formerly known as WebSphere Studio Enterprise Developer (WSED).

Eclipse-based IDEs, such as Rational Application Developer for WebSphere Software and WebSphere Developer for zSeries, provide application developers with a workstation-based integrated development environment for building, testing, integrating, and deploying Java(TM) and J2EE applications. SCLM provides a centralized z/OS-based library and configuration management system that lets application developers store application data, manage changes to the data, perform auditing and versioning, initiate and review application builds, and promote applications through the development lifecycle. IBM SCLM Developer Toolkit, along with SCLM Suite Administrator Workbench, combines the functional richness of the Eclipse-based IDE and the proven integrity and dependability of SCLM to give both application developers and SCLM administrators a new interface to a flexible, powerful, and reliable environment for rapidly and securely modernizing z/OS applications on demand.
