SAE - Stand Alone Environment

SAE - Stand Alone Environment allows access to z/OS volumes and datasets without having an z/OS active. Full range of ISPF like features, Fast DASD Erase to delete a farm in less than 30 minutes with audit report, and Dataset Utilities to ensure critical datasets are always immediately accessible including restore of datasets from DFDSS & FDR volume backups. SAE itself IPLs in 7 seconds, where normally your start-up pack requires 10 to 30 minutes. Essential to any disaster recovery plan as you execute your plan faster and have your production system up and running quicker, and avoid
any back-outs. With Rel. 17 it supports the HMC Integrated Console so you can IPL with Integrated 3270 (SYSG=ENABLE) as well as traditional IPL with console device (SYSG=DISABLE).
