The Zowe CLI was created by a group of new to Z folks who wanted to have a cloud
like command driven experience with z/OS without needing to work with a 3270
emulator or learn ISPF panels and TSO commands. Over time it became one of the
cornerstones of The Open Mainframe Project’s Zowe technology components, and is
currently used by 80% of mainframe shops to do everything from file transfers
and querying job status, to being embedded in Devops automation scripts and
automating workloads. This session will cover the Zowe CLI from basics and
introductory, to more complex use cases with REXX and JCL symbol substitution,
subsystem interaction with CICS, MQ and Db2, as well as the different ways to
authenticate from basic passwords through to client certificates and multi
factor authentication one time passwords alongside SSO tokens.
