InfoCPU - CPU / WLM Reporting & Analysis
InfoCPU is a CPU resource reporting system that easily creates graphical reports along with traditional mainframe SYSOUT reports showing overall CPU and individual WLM workload and service class performance and utilization. Trending of your CPU and WLM resource utilization is fully supported. Use InfoCPU to provide management and technical groups, alike, with the data they need to perform capacity planning and performance and tuning decisions in your data center.
InfoDASD - DASD Reporting & Analysis
InfoDASD integrates disk performance, ownership and usage to show a complete picture of your DASD resources using accurate RMF, SMF and DCOLLECT data. InfoDASD simplifies the reporting and analysis of complex DASD environments by providing trending reports and comprehensive graphs on all elements of DASD performance and utilization.
InfoTape - Tape Reporting & Analysis
InfoTAPE is a complete system, which can be used to generate status reports, comprehensive graphs and monthly trend analysis using accurate SMF and tape management system data. InfoTAPE reports on all aspects of your tape device performance, as well as tape media utilization. InfoTAPE also reports on IBM’s VTS (Virtual Tape Server), showing the relationship between physical and virtual drives and mounts, as well as critical statistics surrounding VTS Fast-Ready, the tape volume cache, stages, migrates and reclaimation.
SMFUTIL / SMFVIEW - SMF Data Management
SMFUTIL is the SMF data management and movement utility that S390 installations around the world are utilizing to automate their SMF processing. SMFUTIL combines speed with extreme flexibility and versatility in the handling of SMF data. It greatly enhances the availability and accessibility of SMF data while reducing the resources required to process this large, yet valuable data source. It eliminates the need to write and maintain special purpose SMF processing routines. SMFUTIL can reduce the dump & clear time by up to 70%.
HSCAN - HSM Reporting & Analysis
HSCAN is an enhanced DFSMShsm (HSM) activity analysis and reporting tool, which drastically improves the access to and readability of HSM raw log data. DASD/Storage Management personnel now have the ability to easily identify and analyze any action taken by HSM, as well as obtain critical capacity planning data regarding system resources used by HSM.
SpaceCalc - DASD Space Calculation
SPACECALC is an interactive DASD and VSAM file modeling and allocation facility. SPACECALC is an easy-to-use, highly efficient TSO/ISPF driven product that eliminates guessing on file allocations and makes complex VSAM modeling simple.
CIM - ICF Catalog Management
CIM, Catalog Information Manager, is a leading edge ISPF panel driven S390 catalog management tool; designed for easy ICF catalog administration, maintenance, diagnostics, backups and synchronized recovery. CIM provides significant performance advantages over all other catalog management solutions, including automatic building of JCL for subsequent batch scheduling and informative online reporting of your entire catalog structure.
SRS - Storage Request System
SRS, Storage Request System, is an ISPF driven program designed to communicate file related requests between a user and the DASD Management Group. SRS tracks each request and maintains the information within a VSAM database for further forecasting and reporting purposes.
DSO – DASD Space Optimizer
DSO will keep the fragmentation-index permanently at an optimized level and keep the still necessary defrag function transparent in the production environment. The storage administrator will define within DSO the volumes that are to be optimized using selection criteria that eliminate maintenance. The highest fragmentation is usually evident where many activities (like creation, extension and deletion of datasets) take place. Typically, the work, test and batch production volumes are hit the most. With DSO, you can set different thresholds for different groups of volumes.
