BMC Message Advisor for IMS

 

Business Challenge

E-business and globalization have increased requirements for 24x365 availability. The number of experienced IMS professionals has decreased while IMS transaction volumes have increased. Whenever a transaction is initiated in IMS, a message is written to a message queue. In many organizations, the message queue data sets can be the most active and critical of all those being processed. Because overloaded message queues can cause IMS outages, the IMS message queue data sets need to be monitored, tuned and managed with the same care as IMS production databases.
