Application Time Facility for z/OS

O IBM® Application Time Facility para z/OS® é um software de simulação de dada e hora para o System z™.

Ele ajuda as equipes de desenvolvimento de software a assegurar que seus softwares tenham o desempenho pretendido nos testes virtuais de data e hora.

• Ele ajuda os seus desenvolvedores a testar aplicativos que depende do horário, de fusos horários ou dos formatos de data e hora sem alterar as configurações de data e hora do System z
• Ele altera os fusos horários para regiões online para que seus usuários vejam sua hora local e assim as atualizações datadas de arquivos de aplicativos tenham a hora local.
• Ele reinicia um trabalho com falha na data e hora em que a falha ocorreu, garantindo que os relatórios e atualizações do arquivo não sejam afetados.
• O software também executa tarefas que, por circunstâncias inevitáveis, estão em cima do prazo, de modo que elas possam ser concluídas dentro do prazo.

Mais Menos

• Comprehensive programming language, environment and format support

• Online ISPF interface

• Online help system for all aspects of using the tool

• Security and integrity features, including authentication and group and class restrictions

• Support for testing individual development jobs or creating a "wildcard" testing scenario

• ATF V2.8.7 provides the benefit of SMP/E installability. Service fixes are issued as SMP/E PTF's and no password/key is needed to use V2.8.7.

• It supports a wide range of languages, environments and formats, including just about any programming language.

• It handles all clock formats, including decimal, binary, timer units, microseconds and TOD. It also supports requests for date.

• The online ISPF interface makes it easy for programmers to specify the jobs to receive simulated dates on an individual basis, or as generic groups by using a wild card.

• Application Time Facility for z/OS is intuitive and easy to use, so minimal training is required, and it is supported by a complete on-line help system.

• It uses minimal system overhead, introducing virtually no additional load to your system, either on programs running the tool or programs with normal system time.

• Not only can you specify a virtual date, but you can also specify a virtual time. You can test end-of period (such as week, month quarter and year) processes, midnight and other sensitive times, and you can simulate communications that span several time zones.
