AUTOMON® - Automated Operations

With System i under-pinning key business applications for so many enterprises, it’s fair to say that there’s never been a stronger argument for deploying automated operations software as an enabler for improved systems reliability, robustness and accountability.

Do you ever face the challenges of:

 

  • Spending too much time managing jobs that are run manually?
  • Continually monitoring jobs manually to check for problems or completion?
  • Running jobs for hours, yet unaware of failure?
  • Needing to assess the impact of failed jobs?
  • Delaying system availability due to poorly managed system backups?
  • Contending with user frustrations as system availability isn’t as high as it should or needs to be?
  • Being unable to manage spool files, their distribution and archiving?

 

Through 4 products, each designed to compliment each other, the AUTOMON® solution suite provides extensive capability to overcome issues so often experienced in hectic operations environments – removing chaos, while putting your IT operations staff back in control of the systems that they manage.
