Promotional still for Console Diagnostics Sprint

Course lead

Evelyn Cho

Coordinates summit content and keeps sprint scenarios aligned with current z/OS maintenance streams.

Description

Operators who already navigate ISPF still freeze when a flood of messages arrives mid-shift. This sprint compresses real incidents from transportation, retail, and public-sector labs into ninety-minute blocks. You learn to triage by severity, capture evidence before recycling address spaces, and communicate with application teams without jargon overload. Every scenario includes a facilitator debrief that links symptoms back to subsystem design so the pattern sticks beyond the classroom.

What is included

  • Six scripted incidents with increasing ambiguity
  • Message handbook you can adapt to your own enterprise taxonomy
  • Role-played bridge calls with strict timeboxes
  • Evidence packet layout external reviewers accepted in past audits
  • SMF excerpt reading without building a full analytics pipeline
  • Checklist for when to engage hardware support versus software support

Outcomes

  1. Produce a concise incident timeline within ten minutes of detection.
  2. Select the correct diagnostic command set for three common failure classes.
  3. Escalate with enough context that the next tier avoids duplicate work.

Participant questions

No. At least seventy percent of seat time is interactive labs or simulations with facilitator observation.

Experience notes

“The bridge-call simulation felt awkward at first, but it fixed our habit of over-explaining to app teams.”
