  1. XINFO The IT Information System XINFO 3.4 What‘s New HORIZONT Software for Datacenters Garmischer Str. 8 D- 80339 München Tel ++49(0)89 / 540 162 - 0www.horizont-it.com

  2. XINFO 3.4 XINFO 3.4 is available since May 2009. It has following new functions: • Scheduling Systems (CA-7, Control-M, Cron, TWSz, UC4) • JCL (Scanner-Improvements, Data Flowchart) • Space z/OS (CA-Disk, SMS-Management) • Beta 93 (Spool History) • SMF (CICS Transactions) • IMS (PSB/Transactions, DBD) • Source Scanner (Assembler, Cobol, PL/1, Natural, Easytrieve) • Eclipse Plugin • PC Client (Line breaks) • XINFO DS (Improvements in installation, performance, administration) • Miscellaneous (TCP/IP Performance, ISPF Region) • Planning (what is coming next?)

  3. Scheduling Systems Improvements are implemented for following schedulers: • CA-7 (Jobnetplan without Conditional Dependencies) • Control-M (Job-Runtime-Barchart) • Cron Scanner (Unix) • TWS for z/OS (Barchart, Description in Netplan-Symbols, Support of TWS for z/OS 8.5) • UC4 (Object-Documentation, graphical Object-Hierarchy)

  4. CA-7 Jobnetplan ------------------------ CA-7 CPU JOB PREDECESSORS ------------------------- FUNCTION: (FORMAT,LIST,UPD) PAGE 0001 PRED FOR JOB: JOB0D LIST-SCHID: OPT SCHID LEADTM PRED-JOB NEXT-RUN 0 0099 JOB0C YES 0 0005 JOB0A YES 0 0033 ?JOB0B YES 0 0000 JOB0E YES 0 0000 /JOB0X YES The Jobnetplan shows different dependency types: Trigger Job Predecessor Requirement New: Conditional Pred. This Predecessor-Types are not always desired

  5. CA-7 Jobnetplan In this view, „mutually exclusive“ (negative dep.) and „conditional Dependencies“ are not shown

  6. CA-7 Jobnetplan That makes the graphic better readable

  7. CTM Barchart - Selection Selection Criteria New Barchart

  8. CTM Barchart - Result Non-z/OS Jobs z/OS Jobs

  9. Crontab Cron - The cron scanner reads the crontab contents from several systems

  10. Crontab We recommend, to convert these tasks to a real scheduling system Easy read access to all crontabs from one single point

  11. TWS Barchart - Selection Select by TWS values. e.g. application id, workstation New Barchart

  12. TWS Barchart - Result TWS values New Barchart

  13. TWS Netplan - Description Application Description Operation Description

  14. TWSz 8.5 – Operation Data New columns for “Conditional Dependencies”

  15. TWSz 8.5 – Dependencies All new fields of “Conditional Dependencies” PS: Column X=Y/N for “ext. Pred” so far, now in addition I/E for “Conditional Dep.” int./ext.

  16. TWSz 8.5 – Jobnetplan Internal “Conditional Dependency” External “Conditional Dependency”

  17. TWSz 8.5 – Jobnetplan Click “right mouse” and select “Succ./Pred. of Oper”to get detailed information about cond. dep. (see next slide)

  18. TWSz 8.5 – Dependency Information All Parameters of “normal” and “conditional” Dependencies

  19. TWSz 8.5 – Current Plan New fields of “Conditional Dependencies”

  20. TWSz 8.5 – Current Plan Some more new fields: Submit/Execution-Destination (Virtual WS) Original RC (Noerror)

  21. UC4 - New Displays New display for documentation and structured documentation (UC4-Object Type “DOCU”) New graph for object hierarchy dependencies

  22. JCL Here are the most significant news implemented with the JCL scanner: • „S001-Problem“ while reading the JCL-Libraries: • Option PT=Y (Point-Macro) is very fast, but in case of concurrent updates, an error S001 can happen. • Option PT=N (Find-Macro) works absolutely safe, but too slow for large libraries • Therefore we changed the behavior of PT=Y: If a S001 happens, it will be automatically recovered and processing continues with the next member • New Tables: • Command Statements • Set JCL variables • JCL Dataflow: Improved GDG-Handling

  23. JCL – New Tables The displays for the new tables

  24. JCL – SET JCL Variable Search for SET JCL Variables

  25. JCL – SET JCL Variable Result

  26. JCL – Command Statements Search for Command Statements

  27. JCL – Command Statements Result

  28. Data Flowchart - Include DD / DSN Include and Exclude statements allow to select files you want to see, e.g. no DD=*DUMP*, but only DSN=PRD* Maybe you want to see only certain files…

  29. Space - CA Disk Migrated Specify selection criteria like DSN, archive date/time etc. New displays “CA disk migrated” “CA disk backup”

  30. Space - CA Disk Migrated Detailed information List of the DSN Archive Date/Time

  31. Space - SMS • New Displays with complete Information about SMS • MGMTCLAS • DATACLAS • STORCLAS • Storage Group

  32. Beta 93 - Spool History Specify selection criteria, e.g. at what time did Beta93 read the report (Input Time) New display “Spool History”

  33. Beta 93 - Spool History Results Detailed information

  34. SMF - CICS Specify selection criteria • Answers following questions: • When was a transaction active? • How long did it take? • How many resources did it use? • ... • The display has more than 60 columns (and 270 additional columns can be “configured”)! New display “CICS Monitor Transactions”

  35. IMS - PSB/Transaction Specify selection criteria, e.g. PSB-Name or Transcation Code New IMS display “PSB/Transaction”

  36. IMS - PSB/Transaction PSB - Transaction PSB - Transaction Detailed information

  37. IMS - DBD A lot of new displays: Complete information about DBDs, it’s Segments, Fields, Pointer etc.

  38. IMS - DBD General Info e.g. DBD-Type, structure etc.

  39. IMS - DBD DS Group Detailed information about DBD/Dataset: DD-Names, LRECL etc.

  40. IMS - DBD Segment Detailed information about DBD/Segments

  41. IMS - DBD Log. Child DBD Logical Child information

  42. IMS - DBD Field DBD-, Field-, Segment-Name, detailed Information

  43. IMS - DBD Field - COBOL Use the „right mouse“ click, to go to e. g. COBOL-Copybook of the Segment or to display the Variable-Definition of a field etc.

  44. Source-Code Scanner • New: Assembler (see extra presentation xxrdasme.ppt): • Copy und Macros (which program uses which macros) • Calls (which program calls which program) • External Symbols • DB2 Access (EXEC SQL-Statements) • Call-Graphik (interlanguage call graphic) • COBOL • New Display „COBOL- Variable Usage“ • New Display „COBOL- Unused Code“ • PL1 • New Display „PL/1 - Variable Usage“ • New Display „PL/1- Comments“ • Natural • New Display „Natural - Variable“ • Sample incremental update Jobs • Process special member names (containing „-“) • Ca. 50% less CPU consumption • Easytrieve • Ca. 25% less CPU consumption

  45. COBOL - Variable Usage Specify selection criteria, e.g. variable name, statement etc. New display “Variable usage”

  46. COBOL - Variable Usage Statement Line-number of Sourcecode Variable-Name Detailed information

  47. COBOL - Unused Code Specify selection criteria, e.g. program name, section, paragraph etc. New display “Unused code”

  48. COBOL - Unused Code Detailed information To line Label of the unused source code Program name From line

  49. PL1 - Variable Usage Specify selection criteria, e.g. variable name, statement type etc. New display “variable usage”
