Automation and object management

BMC AMI Ops products can collect information about problems as they happen and take corrective actions automatically. These automated actions improve your ability to provide high system availability.

BMC AMI Ops Automation mitigates the risks of outages by providing automated correct responses to conditions, as follows:

  • Automates and coordinates management of system objects
  • Manages starting up and shutting down procedures to ensure system availability
  • Tracks each defined object
  • Maintains the requested status of objects across the sysplex

Key-concepts

By simplifying and streamlining automation processes without coding, BMC AMI Ops Automation also provides the following important benefits:

  • Simplifies object management on different systems and sysplexes
  • Simplifies object definition
  • Maximizes resource availability
  • Automatically distributes workloads to meet performance goals or to handle disaster situations

BMC automation products provide simple, nonprocedural rules to quickly and easily automate event handling. These products can also run advanced automation routines in REXX. Easy-to-use sample EXECs show how to send alerts through e-mail, pagers, and SNMP managers. Integration with BMC Event Manager (BEM) and BMC Atrium Orchestrator extends the reach of this comprehensive mainframe automation family, completely supporting BSM and an enterprise-wide automation solution.

Total Object Manager further extends the automation of system events to include coordinated management of system objects. Integrating the automation and object management capabilities into one complete automation solution provides an additional level of automated system availability.

The integration of BMC AMI Ops products simplifies the development of sophisticated system automation and coordinated object management. Integration also lets you use MainView Explorer to view an additional level of automated system availability, in an easy-to-understand flow diagram.
