Migrating SCLM Projects to Git Repositories (2019 Webinar)

Learn from the experts on how to easily migrate from Software Configuration and Library Manager (SCLM) to Git on IBM Z. The SCLM product offering is IBM’s ISPF-based SCM component that runs on z/OS®. Because mainframe software development started well before modern SCM concepts emerged, existing mainframe-based SCMs lack some of the agile lifecycle capabilities that enable full parallel development.

To create systems that are responsive to the market, businesses are required to break down silos separating technologies, operations, and development. To achieve this, enterprises need an automated delivery pipeline that integrates all activities and provide uniform processes (e.g. using work-items, performing reviews, auditing approvals, etc.) to be extended across multiple platforms, including IBM Z.

IBM recommends migrating from SCLM to Git using the SCLM Migration toolkit. The Z Open Development with Dependency Based Build (DBB) and Git as SCM provides developers with full isolation, parallel development and integration into an automated DevOps pipeline. Watch this webinar to learn more about how IBM is making it easier to migrate from SCLM to DBB-Git.
