GLOBAL software company ASG Technologies has launched ASG-TMON for IMS 3.5, offering Day 1 support for the new release of the IBM subsystem.
The latest issue allows organizations to better handle IBM Information Management System (IMS) resource performance and costs, while planning wisely for the future.
ASG-TMON for IMS gives data center managers, data base administrators and system programmers with new support to effectively cut costly application downtime and rapidly identify, respond to and resolve IMS system, database and application problems.
It keeps ASG’s commitment to IBM IMS by adding first-day assistance for the just announced release of IMS V15.2.
Other major improvements include improved profile management via cross-TMONPlex shared repositories.
By transfering the profiles of every member in a TMONPlex into a plex-wide shared repository, profiles just need to be created once and are then available for all TMONPlex members. This is helpful in saving time and effort to manage them and providing consistency across the TMONPlex.
What’s more, it has improved abilities to perform IMS Type-1 and Type-2 commands to facilitate IMS operations. ASG-TMON for IMS 3.5 enhances overall IMS availability by proactively handling IMS applications and critical resources, providing the insight needed to solve complicated IMS system, transaction and database problems.
Using this results in optimized end-user response times and performance.
“The ASG TMON brand is recognized by IT [information technology] professionals for its highly integrated, easy-to-use solutions,” said Jeff Cherrington, vice president of product management for ASG Systems Management offerings.
He added that it gives a single view of IMS across the enterprise, including vital details required for tuning and debugging IMS systems and applications to identify and resolve performance issues before outages occur.
“We at ASG are pleased to provide day one support for IBM’s latest release,” he stressed.
