Application Resources and Whitecap Applications has jointly developed a way to access your VOS data real time from within the Oracle Database. You can treat VOS files as if they are Oracle Tables. We have achieved this via the development of JDBC driver for DBQ. For more information visit WhiteCap Applications

The DRMS ® - Disaster Recovery Mirroring System mirrors critical data to a remote site allowing rapid and reliable application recovery. Secondary databases at the Recovery site are always identical to the ones at the primary production location. DRMS can mirror data into a remote Stratus/VOS module or any other hardware (IBM, HP, AS400, NT etc.).

The SPS/Application Scheduler-Monitoring 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.

The SPS/Performance Monitors address all aspects of system performance: capacity planning, current and historical data reporting, quick on-line troubleshooting and system-level alert handling. SPS monitors help identify which process or application is "killing" the system and resolve potential problems ahead of time to allow more accurate capacity planning.

SPS provides an on-line graphic representation of system's resource consumption. SPS captures and calculates system utilization data based on configurable combinations of groups, users and processes. The product is user-friendly, its reports and graphs are easy to interpret.

The reporting facility allows the user to examine historical data in On-line Playback Mode and to download report files into spreadsheet applications. SPS also features a system wide Analyze System Server process that reduces the overhead associated with the analyze_system subsystem and allows users to extract periodically and log any set of benchmark values. SPS produces alert signals and automatically executes corrective commands when any of the monitored meters exceed the allowed thresholds.

The SPS/VOS Security Shell eliminates unrestricted access to VOS and greatly enhances operators' and developers' productivity. Any operator, even with no Stratus experience, can become proficient and operate the system safely. The SPS/Security Shell is an indispensable environment for any mainframe trained personnel.

Features

While operating modern sophisticated systems, it is extremely difficult, if not impossible, to notice and resolve all system and application events as they occur. Applications may produce any number of logs, errors and output files. The operating system alone may generate thousands of messages every day. Often, serious production problems may be prevented if alerts are noticed and responded to in time. The SPS/Alert Manager is designed to solve this common problem. It monitors system elements, reads messages originating from various systems, modules and applications and funnels the information to a single terminal. Message filters assure that only important information is passed to the operator. Critical alerts cannot be ignored; messages will remain posted on the screen until the problem is attended to, acknowledged and given a proper entry by the operator.

Features

The SPS/Access Control Manager is designed to control, set and monitor all user access to directories, files and programs. The software allows the system administrator to control VOS ACLs/DCLs lists easily from a single focal point to reduce the risk of unauthorized access to data and enhance system security. SPS/Access Control Manager will:

Today's growing networks, new technologies and ever-changing regulations demand robust security solutions that are designed to protect sensitive confidential databases and corporate networks. V-Auditor is a layered suite of software solutions designed to satisfy the most stringent security and auditing requirements. It helps in complying with the Payment Card Industry (PCI) data security standard. It allows multiple levels of customization, including per-user, per-command profiles, full command level password protection, single-point data access control (ACLs) and data encryption.

VOS-Console is a WEB-based set of practical monitoring utilities for the Stratus VOS environment. An all-new complete WEB-Browser interface to VOS performance data, Alert Management, real-time graphs, reports and more. Managing and monitoring the Stratus/VOS environment has never been easier.

SCFS-Secure-CRT-for-Stratus Secure Connectivity

In today's security conscious world, it is more important than ever to protect passwords, user accounts, data, and computer systems. SCFS-Secure-CRT-for-Stratus provides security for remote access, file transfer, and data tunneling by combining the open Secure Shell protocol with rock-solid terminal emulation.

SCFS-Secure-CRT-for-Stratus gives you an encrypted SSH session with both SSH1and SSH2 servers. SSH security goes far beyond the basic secure logon, rerouting data or local applications using TCP/IP ports through an encrypted channel.

Using SCFS-Secure-CRT-for-Stratus port forwarding, you can reroute TCP/IP data to an encrypted data channel between a local machine and an SSH server.
