BMC RECOVERY MANAGER for IMS

 

Business Challenge

Recovery time and manual processing are major issues in recovery processing. Long recovery times mean high costs, especially while preparing for and implementing recovery and rebuilding lost data. Implementing recovery may require tedious manual processing, especially if you need to group databases to synchronize recoveries or to establish valid recovery points across databases and applications. This type of manual processing is impractical because it is labor-intensive and prone to error.

Business Need

  • Achieve system availability and faster recoveries
  • Automate recovery procedures
  • Leverage existing staff
  • Reduce system downtime

Our Solution

RECOVERY MANAGER for IMS uses group processing to simplify the recovery management process, ensure consistent activity across related databases, and increase the speed of recovery utility processing. You can manage various recovery scenarios and prepare strategies for specific situations, including disaster recovery. Using RECOVERY MANAGER for IMS saves you time and money by automating the recovery process and eliminating manual procedures. Automated recovery reduces system downtime by speeding up recovery time.

Key Features & Benefits

  • Reduces setup time and errors by eliminating manual setup and coding for recoveries
  • Enables synchronized recovery by creating standard recovery points based on user-defined timing and grouping
  • Enables creation of a consistent disaster recovery point by synchronizing log switches for multiple IMS systems
  • Reduces time and effort required for nonstandard recovery situations by supporting interactive analysis of available recovery points and logs
  • Reduces time and effort for recovery by maintaining up-to-date allocation information and quickly reallocating IMS databases when needed
  • Reduces time for disaster recovery by automatically preparing the DBRC RECON data set for IMS startup and database recovery at a disaster recovery site
