Introduction to RTCS

The Runtime Component System (RTCS) is an infrastructure that uses the latest z/OS system facilities to take advantage of modern enterprise servers. The RTCS infrastructure forms the basis for products that are designed to simplify product installation and configuration.

The RTCS infrastructure is established in a target z/OS image by a dedicated z/OS subsystem control address space. After being initialized, the RTCS subsystem control address space only executes code that is necessary to respond to operator commands and RTCS system registry operations.

All RTCS administrative functions and all products execute in either a dedicated product address space (PAS) or in an RTCS Generalized Server address space that is started by RTCS for the exclusive use by one or more products.
