Robot/CONSOLE: Managing QSYSOPR and Critical Resources like SBS, JOBQ, and HTTP

Help/Systems invites you to attend a no-cost online seminar! Learn how to automate message handling and resource monitoring for your logical partitions or network of systems in this online demo!

Presenters: Tom Huntington, Vice President of Technical Services and Terri Preston, Technical Consultant

You'll learn how Robot/CONSOLE (message processing), Robot/ALERT (paging and e-mail notification), and Robot/NETWORK (networking for logical partitions or networked System i [iSeries, AS/400] systems) work together to provide enterprise monitoring. Find out how these products satisfy the needs of your system administrator, operators, auditors, and end users.

Did you know that the i5/OS and OS/400 operating systems use the QSYSOPR message queue to tell you about security errors, hardware failures, application failures, printer errors, and communication errors? Unfortunately, these critical messages are often overlooked among thousands of less important ones. That won't happen if you have an expert message-filtering tool like Robot/CONSOLE.

Are you tired of writing programs to monitor resources? Robot/CONSOLE can monitor jobs, job queues, Domino servers, WebSphere (http) servers, printers, ports, TCP/IP, subsystems, and more at regular intervals -- and it's easy to set up! Save programming and administration time!

Most of the time, critical events don't happen while you are looking at your computer screen. That's where Robot/ALERT, paging, text messaging, and e-mail notification software, comes in. It will notify you no matter where you are and you can respond from your PDA or cell phone. Learn how Robot/ALERT integrates with Robot/CONSOLE and provides two-way paging, two-way e-mail with attachments, SNPP paging, broadcast lists, and many more notification features.

Did you know that each partition runs a separate copy of i5/OS or OS/400 and that each copy needs to be monitored? Robot/NETWORK, networking software, allows you to consolidate the workstations that are needed to monitor for critical events. You can have a single workstation monitoring your entire network! Robot/NETWORK can send two-way SNMP events to another network tool like HP OpenView, Remedy, IBM NETCOOL, or Tivoli Enterprise Console.

How do these products provide a return on your investment? They save you time monitoring your systems, reduce head counts, keep little problems from becoming big ones, are easy to implement, and improve security. They also help you comply with SOX, PCI, and more.During the presentation, you will have opportunities to tell us about your message management, network management, and message notification needs.
