Business Challenge
Many IMS Fast Path installations perform database maintenance during the traditional batch window. Because the maintenance window continues to shrink, time savings for database maintenance has become a key requirement even for batch processes. Additionally, customers need a comprehensive tool set that helps to conserve processing resources while delivering all the analysis, reorganization, structure change, and reporting capabilities that are essential for management of business-critical Fast Path databases.
Business Need
- Users need Fast Path maintenance utilities that perform faster and offer extended functionality
- Users need to conserve resources while performing concurrent Fast Path database management
- Fast Path databases require frequent reorganization due to high transaction activity
- Users must analyze Fast Path databases to plan reorganizations and accommodate space requirements
Our Solution
The Fast Path Offline Suite delivers the most comprehensive software available for maximizing the performance and availability of IMS Fast Path databases. This product suite provides a variety of functions for installations more accustomed to handling DEDB maintenance during the time-constrained batch maintenance window. With the Fast Path Offline Suite, you can simultaneously analyze the database while performing a change, reorganization, or unload/reload operation. Synergy with other BMC Software products helps with database recoveries, compression, and image copying of Fast Path databases.
