Sakkamon Rapeepisarn

System Programmer at Krungsri

Automation has improved alerts and file handling but script-based setup still needs simplification

OPS_MVS Automation Intelligence is the automation tool I use. I think OPS_MVS Automation Intelligence is good for creating complex rules because it's coding, but it takes time to learn how to use it. OPS_MVS Automation Intelligence works well if you know the syntax very well and you have experience in creating scripts or REXX syntax; it would be very good and is a good tool, but it takes time to learn, so that is for experienced staff to work with. I would rate the product a six from one to ten. I cannot think of any additional features in the next release of OPS_MVS Automation Intelligence.

System Programmer at Krungsri

Real-time monitoring has improved incident response but still needs built-in history and prediction

A long-term performance database in SYSVIEW Performance Intelligence would be beneficial to see historical performance for the long term and observe trends. Currently, a program must be created to gather data, and it should be part of the product with a built-in database inside SYSVIEW Performance Intelligence so that a custom program to gather data and keep it somewhere is not necessary. Prediction capability is not available in SYSVIEW Performance Intelligence—the kind of machine learning intelligence desired, such as the ability to predict patterns or seasonality or month-end behavior. However, if there is a chance to use WatchTower, this ability might be gained.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"It's a very stable product. I very much like the SSM stuff in it. The rules engine, it's awesome."

"With the automation pieces we can bring this region up or take this region down, and it allows us to always meet our time critical requirements."

"The documentation is simple, easy to follow, and use. A limited, first-time systems programmer can do it, in that it is out-of-the-box almost functional."

"Valuable features include: SSM, which provides for orderly startup and shutdown; OPSLOG, which enables filtering by message-id, and/or jobname(s); Rules, as OPS/REXX interface streamlines deployment, interfaces easily with JES2 and z/OS."

"Because we can define complex commands, the training of new operators is quicker. We can also put checks in place, that will prevent user errors."

"OPS_MVS Automation Intelligence works well if you know the syntax very well and you have experience in creating scripts or REXX syntax; it would be very good and is a good tool, but it takes time to learn, so that is for experienced staff to work with."

"It allows us to respond faster to issues. If there are issues that come out, we're able to capture a message and alert somebody about it."

"It is an easy product to use and it is stable."

More OPS/MVS Automation Intelligence pros

"It is easy to see if anything is wrong. The queues on the system are fast, and it is very intuitive to locate something."

"When we changed to JES3, the programmers didn't have to know anything. The product provided the same interface with the same look and feel."

"The scalability is absolutely fine."

"Ability for system diagnostics"

"We have not had any major issues in approximately 15 years."

"Thresholds with alerts are valuable, enabling us to fix a problem before it has an impact."

"I also really appreciated all the work that everybody did to get it functional for JES3, and they continue to do so, even though IBM said they are going to do away with JES3."

"I use most of the SMS space management extensively, but also the features that enable me to look at dumps and different dataset allocations to the system, and performance data from the queueing and delays."

Cons

"The interfaces to USS, CA UIM could be better. CA Common Services interfaces - namely Zdata Mover, Zmessage Service, Zdatacolletcor - are poorly documented."

"One thing that comes to mind is the MQ interface. The last time we tried to use it, it seemed a little clunky."

"The further expansion of the mainframe teamcenter interface. Also, the web services support is something that I am looking into."

"The GUI interface could be improved, but that is coming. They are working on that."

"It’s a complex product. The initial installation is easy, but implementing various functions is a constant process."

"Some of the command sequences are too long."

"It definitely needs more web-based interface, to be more mobile-open. More APIs, more open source to it."

"Performing a stop/restart of OPS/MVS could be a little smoother. Without special coding, some undesired tasks will be started and some necessary tasks will be stopped if we have to bounce OPS/MVS during the day."

More OPS/MVS Automation Intelligence cons

"The documentation format could be better. I noticed with the last release that all of the manuals were bundled into one. It used to have a separate installation guide, user guide, etc."

"The things that I would think about would be in relation to JES3. However, I don't know if they'll be able to do much more with that because I don't know how much longer IBM is going to be supporting JES3. So I can understand not doing additional development. But if I were to suggest something it would be the JES3 initiators, the JES3 queues."

"It confuses a lot of people because there are so many features, but when they see me bouncing around they say, "I didn't know it did that, I didn't know it did that." It takes a long time to find all the different features that are available."

"They are already working on improvements. One of them is the operational intelligence, which is a lot of stuff I am trying to learn and work on right now, which SYSVIEW reports to that all the system things which are going on."

"If a unit of work ID is associated with a CICS, a DB2, and a MQ transaction, and having that capability correlate to those different technologies via one business application transaction which would be beneficial."

"We are using Datacom as the database system, so maybe a little bit more integration with that."

"The documentation, like installation guides and stuff, put it all in one place."

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available

"Pricing is a little steep, but there are a lot of other functions that it brings together. It gives you one window to look through to get to a lot of different features. The more products you have from CA, the better pricing they have, the more you can get them doing more things for you."

Overview

z/OS, its subsystems, databases, middleware, applications, and software generate thousands of event messages daily. IT professionals need a tool to filter, prioritize, and respond quickly to these events before they impact availability and threaten business processing and associated service level agreements. CA OPS/MVS EMA automates processes, enabling you to resolve problems as they arise. It also automates more routine tasks, simplifying IT management and operations.

Broadcom

CA SYSVIEW Performance Management offers new levels of visibility into critical business transactions that provide 24x7 monitoring for complex application environments. This real-time visibility is a critical asset to simplify mainframe performance management by monitoring against alerts, drilling down for intuitive problem identification, and basing automation on performance intelligence. Instead of using different tools, processes and people to support each environment, now there's an enterprise-wide solution that monitors the real-time performance of mainframe subsystems, providing additional integrated data.
