Product 

BMC AMI Ops Automation for Batch ThruPut

Version

18.02.00

Date

2023/08/22 00:00 

We are announcing enhancements to the listed product.

Overview of the enhancements

This section summarizes the enhancements to all editions of ThruPut Manager.

  • The Health Checker now ensures that the control file is allocated with a single extent, which is necessary for good performance and greater data integrity in a disaster recovery scenario.
  • The Control File and the Duplex are now never written at the same time so that in a disaster recovery scenario, at least one of the two files is a valid, useable copy.
