Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Digital business has been driving the transformation of underlying information technology (IT) infrastructure to be more efficient, secure, adaptive, and integrated. IT must be able to handle the explosive growth of mobile clients and employees. It also must be able to process enormous amounts of data to provide deep and real-time insights to help achieve the greatest business impact. This IBM® Redbooks® publication addresses the new IBM z SystemsTM single frame, the IBM z13s server. IBM z Systems servers are the trusted enterprise platform for integrating data, transactions, and insight. A data-centric infrastructure must always be available with a 99.999% or better availability, have flawless data integrity, and be secured from misuse. It needs to be an integrated infrastructure that can support new applications. It also needs to have integrated capabilities that can provide new mobile capabilities with real-time analytics delivered by a secure cloud infrastructure. IBM z13s servers are designed with improved scalability, performance, security, resiliency, availability, and virtualization. The superscalar design allows z13s servers to deliver a record level of capacity over the prior single frame z Systems server. In its maximum configuration, the z13s server is powered by up to 20 client characterizable microprocessors (cores) running at 4.3 GHz. This configuration can run more than 18,000 millions of instructions per second (MIPS) and up to 4 TB of client memory. The IBM z13s Model N20 is estimated to provide up to 100% more total system capacity than the IBM zEnterprise® BC12 Model H13. This book provides information about the IBM z13s server and its functions, features, and associated software support. Greater detail is offered in areas relevant to technical planning. It is intended for systems engineers, consultants, planners, and anyone who wants to understand the IBM z SystemsTM functions and plan for their usage. It is not intended as an introduction to mainframes. Readers are expected to be generally familiar with existing IBM z Systems technology and terminology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The importance of business continuity and disaster recovery remains at the forefront of thought for many executives and IT technical professionals. This IBM® RedpaperTM describes the lessons learned from recent disasters and how IBM storage technology can help businesses address many of the issues related to protecting their storage infrastructures and business-critical IT applications. Two principal disaster recovery metrics, Recovery Time Objective and Recovery Point Objective, are defined and, along with the associated cost tradeoffs, are discussed from the vantage point of various IBM storage technology solutions. Two IBM Business Continuance/Disaster Recovery (BC/DR) automation solutions, known as GDPS/PPRC with HyperSwap® and GDPS/PPRC HyperSwap Manager, are described and shown how they can help an installation move closer to attaining a goal of continuous operationGDPS/PPRC with HyperSwap operates in z/OS® environments. For z/OS installations operating two or more sites, in the event of a storage subsystem, host, network or communications facility failure, a switch to processing at an alternate site can be made in almost real time by using GDPS/PPRC with HyperSwap. Additionally, many Clustered Open Systems that are integrated with IBM Remote Copy technology can be configured to switch to a second site in almost real time. In these situations, when a site switch is executed, applications that have been cloned at both sites can continue running with minimal impact to the user.

Book excerpt: IBM® Db2® Analytics Accelerator is a workload optimized appliance add-on to IBM DB2® for IBM z/OS® that enables the integration of analytic insights into operational processes to drive business critical analytics and exceptional business value. Together, the Db2 Analytics Accelerator and DB2 for z/OS form an integrated hybrid environment that can run transaction processing, complex analytical, and reporting workloads concurrently and efficiently. With IBM DB2 Analytics Accelerator for z/OS V7, the following flexible deployment options are introduced: Accelerator on IBM Integrated Analytics System (IIAS): Deployment on pre-configured hardware and software Accelerator on IBM Z®: Deployment within an IBM Secure Service Container LPAR For using the accelerator for business-critical environments, the need arose to integrate the accelerator into High Availability (HA) architectures and Disaster Recovery (DR) processes. This IBM RedpaperTM publication focuses on different integration aspects of both deployment options of the IBM Db2 Analytics Accelerator into HA and DR environments. It also shares best practices to provide wanted Recovery Time Objectives (RTO) and Recovery Point Objectives (RPO). HA systems often are a requirement in business-critical environments and can be implemented by redundant, independent components. A failure of one of these components is detected automatically and their tasks are taken over by another component. Depending on business requirements, a system can be implemented in a way that users do not notice outages (continuous availability), or in a major disaster, users notice an outage and systems resume services after a defined period, potentially with loss of data from previous work. IBM Z was strong for decades regarding HA and DR. By design, storage and operating systems are implemented in a way to support enhanced availability requirements. IBM Parallel Sysplex® and IBM Globally Dispersed Parallel Sysplex (IBM GDPS®) offer a unique architecture to support various degrees of automated failover and availability concepts. This IBM Redpaper publication shows how IBM Db2 Analytics Accelerator V7 can easily integrate into or complement existing IBM Z topologies for HA and DR. If you are using IBM Db2 Analytics Accelerator V5.1 or lower, see IBM Db2 Analytics Accelerator: High Availability and Disaster Recovery, REDP-5104.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This IBM® Redbooks® publication helps you install, configure, and use the IBM z/OS® Management Facility (z/OSMF). z/OSMF is a product for z/OS that simplifies, optimizes, and modernizes the z/OS system programmer experience. z/OSMF delivers solutions in a task-oriented, web browser-based user interface with integrated user assistance. The goal of z/OSMF is to improve system programmer productivity, and make functions easier to understand and use. This improvement makes system programmers more productive as quickly as possible with the least amount of training. You can automate tasks, reduce the learning curve, and improve productivity through a modern, simplified, and intuitive task-based, browser-based interface. z/OSMF is aimed at a mixed skills workforce: It is suited to professionals who are new to z/OS and those who are skilled in z/OS. Each professional has their own needs and faces their own challenges. Novice system programmer might need to understand the "big picture" and how procedures are done. Novices also need access to documentation about procedures and tasks, and implement them according to the rules of the enterprise. Experienced system programmers are familiar with tasks and procedures. Therefore, the goal is to make their work less error-prone and easier. This goal allows them to be more productive and contribute more to their business. Although z/OS delivered simplification since it was introduced, z/OSMF brings a new dimension and focus to simplification. z/OSMF simplifies and modernizes the user experience and helps make pertinent information readily available and easily accessible.
