What to automate

Consider the following tasks and areas of your IT infrastructure when deciding what to automate:

  • Repetitive, well-defined tasks such as system startup and shutdown
  • Notification of support personnel
  • Restart of failed processes such as jobs, started tasks, transactions, programs, databases, and queues
  • System data and messages
  • Complex areas of IT or areas that lack skilled staff and expertise

BMC AMI Ops Automation automation can be triggered by alarms on fields in a view (BMC AMI Ops metrics), or by various system messages.

You can create a BMC AMI Ops Automation Rule to trap WTOs, WTORs, MLWTOs, IMS messages, CICS transient data queue (TDQ) messages, ALERTs, journal messages, MQ messages on a queue, and more.
