IBM File Manager for z/OS®

IBM File Manager for z/OS® extends Zowe Explorer with tools for enhanced file processing when working with z/OS data sets. The extension provides a graphical interface for accessing, editing, and managing datasets and files on z/OS systems, and is a modern alternative to working with IBM File Manager outside the existing Eclipse-based client.

IBM Fault Analyzer for z/OS®

IBM Fault Analyzer for z/OS® extends Zowe Explorer with tools for analyzing and fixing application and system failures.
