Processor Operations helps operators manage more systems with greater efficiency. One operator, in one location, can initialize, configure, monitor, shut down, and recover multiple systems -- both local and remote -- and respond to a variety of detected conditions. The operator, using one standard interface, can do all that across multiple types of systems. Automated routines for frequently used functions speed the work of skilled operators and assist less experienced operators to become more productive.
Processor Operations supports monitoring and control functions for any of the following processors:
- zSeries and 390-CMOS processors
- All CMOS processors supporting Operations Command Facility (OCF) that are not part of the above processor families are supported by processor operations with limited functionality
SA z/OS processor operations supports logical partitioning of any of these processors that also support logical partitioning.
The operating systems that processor operations supports on the target systems are z/OS, OS/390, MVS, VM, VSE, and Linux for zSeries.
Processor operations monitors and controls processor hardware operations. It provides a connection from a focal point processor to a target processor. With NetView on the focal point processor, processor operations automates operator and system consoles for monitoring and recovering target processors.
Processor operations allows you to power on and off multiple target processors and reset them. You can perform IPLs, set the time of day clocks, respond to messages, monitor status, and detect and resolve wait states.
