  1. XINFO The IT - Information System XINFO V3R5 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 3.5 XINFO 3.5 will be available Mai 2010. It has following new functions: • CA-7 • Control-M • TWS for z/OS • UC4 • SMF • Java Scanner (new) • PC Client • Miscellaneous • Implemented “on the flight” • What’s coming next

  3. Critical Path in CA-7 Job Netplan CA-7 job netplan has a new search function : Critical Path

  4. Critical Path in CA-7 Job Netplan Based on the “Clock time“ XINFO calculates the longest path within the displayed netplan. The total duration is shown on top of the result list.

  5. Control-M The new functions of XINFO‘s Control-M scanner: • Since CTM 6.4.01 some fields are extended, e.g. Application, Table, Member etc. • XINFO 3.5 fields are adapted • Older scanners work, but may truncate data • Supports 7.0.0 (long appl names, smart tables): • Fix is available • Unload scripts for Control-M with PostgreSQL • “Job-History“ based on IOALOG (job start/endtimes) • New parameter KH=9999 (days) allows to specify how long the history should be kept • A new column shows JES jobid (z/OS jobs only) • Display “Job statistics“ • Renamed to “Average Job Duration“. • Job runtimes are calculated by the scanner • New display „Job Script/JCL“ for embedded scripts and JCL • Search for critical path in job netplan

  6. Critical Path in CTM Job netplan CTM job netplan has a new search function : Critical Path

  7. Critical Path in CTM Job netplan Based on the “average duration“ XINFO calculates the longest path within the displayed netplan. The total duration is shown on top of the result list.

  8. Control-M Barchart The left column in the jobruntime barchart can display now Jobname, Application, Group or Table XINFO.INI: [GRAPHCTMRUNTIME] FIELDS="APPLICATION;GROUP;TABLE;JOB"

  9. TWS for z/OS 8.5.1 New functions of the TWSz scanner: • Supports TWS z/OS 8.5.1 • New fields stepname and procstepname for conditional dependencies • New field z-Centric Agent in WS definition • Search for critical path in Job netplan

  10. Critical Path in TWSz Job netplan TWS job netplan has a new search function : Critical Path

  11. Critical Path in TWSz Job netplan Based on the “estimated duration“ XINFO calculates the longest path within the displayed netplan. The total duration is shown on top of the result list.

  12. UC4 New functions of the UC4 scanner: • New display ”Comments“ including timestamp etc. • New display “Sync Conflicts“ shows “which objects have waited how long on what “ • The forecast shows optional objects that do not have STATUS_OK • It is possible now to unload the JCL of a single z/OS Job (e.g. for SmartJCL). New parameters: • WRITE_JCL=ONLY • WRITE_JCL_INCL_OBJ=objekt • Support for UC4 Version 8 (64 Bit) • Search for critical path in Job netplan

  13. Critical Path in UC4 Job Netplan UC4 job netplan has a new search function: Critical Path

  14. Critical Path in UC4 Job Netplan Based on the “ERT“ XINFO calculates the longest path within the displayed netplan. The total duration is shown on top of the result list.

  15. Critivcal Path in ZEKE Jobnet Zeke jobnet (Plan) has a new search function: Critical Path

  16. Critivcal Path in ZEKE Jobnet Based on “Average Duration“ XINFO calculates the longest path within the displayed netplan. The total duration is shown on top of the result list.

  17. SMF New functions of the SMF scanner: • Start-, End- and Submit times in hundreds of seconds • New fields showing CPU consumption more detailed: • CPU service units • SRB service units • I/O service units • CPU-Time zAAP (sec) • CPU-Time zIIP (sec) • CICS TS 4.1 support

  18. Java • The JAVA scanner delivers info about • Import • Classes • Interfaces • Methods, Methods usage • Variable, Variable usage • Comments • Click here for more details A new Java scanner is available with XINFO 3.5

  19. PC Client New functions of the PC Client: • Search ”Critical Path“ for CA7, Control-M, TWS z/OS and UC4 • General setting for column width by percent. To be specified in xinfo.ini, e.g. [OPTIONS] COL_WIDTH=110 • HTML files that are created by BIF can have additional links. An example - If a table shows a jobname “abc”, this jobname can point to an external file, e.g. “abc.pdf”. • Change TSO password from PC client (requires new ROTISHD and server program)

  20. PC Client A new Zoomfactor allows to change the size of the barchart display

  21. Miscellaneous Enhancements 1/2 • Cobol • Column “Variable updated“ in display “Variable usage“ shows where a variable is modified. • Control-D • The length of the report name is extended to 50 • JCL • Shows DB start/stop commands. The DB2 scanner finds the resulting tables. This new field allows to query “which table is started/stopped by which job”. • Optional the member name can be used instead of the jobname • CICS TS 4.1: • CICS Scanner supports CICS TS 4.1 • Zeke • Supports Zeke 5.6 from fix 2011-05-2011 News in other scanners:

  22. Miscellaneous Enhancements 2/2 • ISPF • Supports screens with more than 80 chars width (e.g. 132, 160) • Select command can show the columns of the table panel (by default it shows the columns of the selection panel) • Installation (z/OS DB2) • Instead of calculating the space parameters for the DB2 tablespace (PRIQTY/SEQQTY) specify “-1“ – In this case DB2 adjusts the allocation dynamically • XINFO ODBC (Windows) • No need to define XINFO programs within DEP (Data Execution Prevention) as exception • XINFO DS • Improved performance (TCPIP communication)

  23. XINFO 3.5 – “on the flight” Some requirements implemented “on the flight“ • Cobol Display „Variable Declarations“: • “Is used“ is set to “Y“, even if “only” 88 level is used: 01 INPUT-STATUS-FLAG PIC X(01) VALUE 'A'. 88 INPUT-FILE-OPENED VALUE 'A'. 88 INPUT-FILE-CLOSED VALUE 'E'. ... SET INPUT-FILE-CLOSED TO TRUE. • Literals and constants from the PROCEDURE DIVISION are shown in a table: IF CON-FIELD2 = 'A' MOVE 'ABC123' TO CON-FIELD2 => XINFO shows “ABC123“ with Level=00 and Name=‘’)

  24. XINFO 3.5 – “on the flight” more requirements implemented "on the flight" • Cobol display “Variable Declarations“ and “Variable Usage“ are shown in superior structure level: 01 DT-INFO. 03 DATE. 05 DAY PIC 9(02). 05 MONTH PIC 9(02). 05 YEAR PIC 9(04). … MOVE 10 TO DAY. • Result in XINFO display “Variable Declarations” level name isused 01 DT-INFO Y 03 DATE Y 05 DAY Y 05 MONTH N 05 YEAR N • Result in XINFO display “Variable Usage”: name statement updated DAY MOVE Y DATE MOVE Y DT-INFO MOVE Y

  25. XINFO 3.5 More requirements implemented "on the flight" • Cobol and PL/I display “Variable Usage“: Procedure division using parm-var1parm-var2... or prc1: proc (parm_var1, parm_var2, …) Result in XINFO display “Variable Usage”: name statement updated parm-var1 PROCEDURE N parm-var2 PROCEDURE N parm_var1 PROCEDURE N parm_var2 PROCEDURE N • PL/I compiler option PP(MACRO,MACRO) is processed correctly (Option PREPROTWICE=Y)

  26. What‘s coming next? XINFO 3.6 is planned to be GA May 2012. For the following components extensions are planned, work in progress, or already done (and can be installed manually in older XINFOs if necessary): • Control-M • Streamworks (new) • TWS • SMF • Source Scanner • Beta93

  27. Control-M Full support of Control-M version 7, especially Control-M DS SMART tables: „Subtables" are resolved, the real jobstream is displayed

  28. Control-M Some new features of the Control-M scanner: • Display „ON PGMST / Steps“ contains for DO Action=Mail Subject and Recipient • Version 7: Increased field lenght for „Application“ and „Author“
