PMDC - Base Software
- Full screen, menu driven, online real-time and
historical performance management software for all CA-IDMS Releases from 10.0
through 15.x Central Version.
- Fully compatible with IBM VM, DOS/VSE and
MVS/SP, XA, ESA and OS/390 operating systems.
- Designed to perform all functions with the
least possible impact on the CV run-time environment.
- Summarized individual resource data is
presented at the highest level with the option of selecting more detailed
displays that include individual Control Blocks and Storage
Addresses.
- Performance data is also presented using
graphs, charts and histograms where appropriate.
- ALERTs are generated and issued to specific
CA-IDMS-DC Destination names, Logical Terminal names or User SIGNON
identifiers. Optionally, TASKs can be automatically terminated when user
specified threshold limits have been exceeded.
|
PMDC External Monitor
(EXTN) - Optional
Feature
- External monitoring of the CV system even
during total lockout conditions to allow technical and support staff to
identify problems and take the appropriate action, including Task
termination.
|
PMDC Command Center
(CVCC) - Optional Feature
- Operates in a separate MVS-OS/390 Address
Space to collect and consolidate specific PMDC displays, ALERT conditions and
background statistics from different CVs on the same local and/or remote
machines and LPARs.
- Multiple CVs can each be interrogated from a
single screen.
- Critical performance indicators for all CVs
can be collected automatically and assessed using a single "Command-Center"
display.
|
PMDC Logging - Optional Feature
- CV Event, Interval, Alert Messages and Logging
statistics are captured to SMF (MVS only) or VSAM ESDS datasets for integration
with other SMF data management and reporting systems such as MXG©, CA-MICS
or SAS©.
- Over 70 standard reports are provided for the
SAS© user. All the required PMDC SAS reporting macros are
included.
- A User Exit is provided for collecting and
recording information specific to a user's requirement.
- MXG© style components, Output Exit macros
and complete documentation are included for incorporating the captured data
into the MXG© system.
|
PMDC MICS - Optional Feature
- Includes formatting, installation generated
documentation and an accounting component that are required to integrate the
captured statistical data into a standard CA-MICS database.
|
PMDC UCDC
- Optional Feature
- CV image capture facility that can be
invoked:
- explicitly via the PMDC online DUMP
command
- automatically when specific ALERT conditions
are detected
- when user defined Log messages are generated
by DC/UCF
- Images may be viewed immediately after they
are taken.
- Multiple users may access the same captured
Image concurrently.
- An excellent tool for training new
DBAs.
