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.

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."

"OPS/MVS is much more intuitive to use, especially compared to Netview/SA/GDPS."

"The service has been wonderful."

"It reduces the number of repetitive motions required by a human to respond to the system."

"The service has been wonderful. I like the people that I have had to deal with. The process is very straightforward. I call or use the website."

"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."

"Stability is probably the best out-of-the-box. Put it in, set it up, and you leave it alone. It works wonderfully."

"I can and interrupt what's going on, bring a job down if I need to, and bring it back up."

More OPS/MVS Automation Intelligence pros

"The most valuable thing to us about SYSVIEW is the overall scale of it."

"It provides much more info regarding the mainframe and interfaces, with ease of use (menus); has many more options available compared to the previous product."

"Using SYSVIEW means we have to bug our tech support a lot less."

"This is our primary performance monitor; it replaced BMC Mainview and is much easier to install and maintain, with most of what we need in this single product."

"Technical support is very skilled and helpful."

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

"Between the tech support and the person I was working with, they have been extraordinary."

"This does pretty much the same thing that MainView does at a cheaper cost."

More SYSVIEW Performance Intelligence pros

Cons

"Scalability is zero. It cannot be scaled because of its age."

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

"Some of the command sequences are too long."

"The reason sometimes it is not stable, we do not have the expertise to write the script."

"I think, for me, I’d like to see more of its web base."

"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."

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

"With stability, sometimes we do have problems with this product."

More OPS/MVS Automation Intelligence cons

"Perhaps the CPU usage: When SYSVIEW is accessed via VTAM, the CPU usage is higher than compared to when its accessed via TSO using exactly the same commands, e.g., Display active tasks."

"Having spoken with the product owner, we discussed the interests of being able to identify the unit of work ID giving us the ability to correlate transactions that cross technologies."

"It takes a couple of prods once in a while to get technical support going."

"The creation of dashboards could be made much easier, such as the way it is done in BMCs MainView for example."

"As for the JES2 component of the product, CA might improve the overall performance when accessing the JES2 spool."

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

"It needs better documentation explaining the different possibilities of what you can do with the product."

"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."

More SYSVIEW Performance Intelligence cons

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.
