The
SPS/Application Scheduler & Monitor |
Automate application monitoring, batch cycles schedules and
process recovery procedures |
|
The SPS/Application Scheduler-Monitor
is a complete, integrated package designed to control and
monitor all applications running on the system. The Monitor
automates all application startups, shutdowns and recovery
procedures based on predefined time schedules. SPS
allows complete automation of batch cycles and keeps on-line
applications up and running at all times. Single-point control
of operations at all application levels minimizes risk of
human error and prevents production disasters.

Frequently asked questions |
|
 |
What
kind of system overhead should I expect? |
| |
None.
The system is completely event-driven and will "sleep"
99% of the time. It will "wake" up only when it's time
to take action: start a process, stop an application
or restart a failed job |
|
My
schedule is not always set, I need to be able to periodically
adjust it. Will this be a problem? |
| |
Not
at all. You can easily adjust your batch-initiation
start-time or any other batch-type settings on-the-fly. |
|
Can
I have multiple configuration settings on the same system? |
| |
Absolutely.
You can have unlimited number of environments serving
different applications. Alternatively, you can centralize
all activities and use the "Project" tag to identify
the different applications |
|
My
application has no end-of-day batch cycle. How would
I benefit from SPS? |
| |
SPS
will allow you to automate your system start-up and
shutdown procedures and will immediately restart any
failed processes. In addition SPS will track your application
(performance), keep statistics and produce management
reports. |
|
Can
I allow our operators to check the schedule and application
status but block any changes to the schedule? |
| |
Yes,
SPS will allow you to define and control who's allowed
to do what within the system. You can even password-protect
process shutdowns (stop_process) and more. |
|
What
about national and business holidays? |
| |
SPS
supports site-specific holidays and based on configuration
tags will adjust start-up schedules accordingly |
