For your IBM® z/OS® environments, demands for availability are constant; however, so are demands for change. With BMC AMI Storage Migration solutions, you can efficiently manage migration and erasure requirements, while delivering the continuous service levels your business needs.
Simplify and secure migrations while minimizing disruption to the storage subsystem
With BMC AMI Storage Migration solutions, you can:
-
Employ dataset allocations that maximize performance and resource utilization, while minimizing disruption and administrative effort
-
Address migration requirements, while meeting stringent service level agreements
-
Consolidate datasets onto higher-capacity disk volumes, so teams can maximize resource and administrative efficiency
-
Consistently and efficiently address data erasure requirements with confidence
-
Streamline migration and erasure efforts to help minimize errors and risk
Key capabilities
BMC AMI Storage FDRPAS
Reduces the disruption and application downtime associated with moving whole DASD volumes to new devices
Migrates DASD volumes within a single system or attached to multiple systems or LPARS in a shared-DASD sysplex environment
Multiple volumes, up to 8,000 or more, can be swapped concurrently and non-disruptively with operating systems, applications, and online systems
Supports major hardware providers including IBM®, EMC, Hitachi, and Sun StorageTek
Swapping can occur between disks of the same type and vendor, or between disks of different vendors
BMC AMI Storage FDRPASVM
Reduces disruption and application downtime associated with moving whole DASD volumes to new devices for z/VM® and Linux® on Z volumes
Can be used to swap multiple volumes concurrently and non-disruptively for z/VM® users while tracking all updates made by z/VM® and virtual machine guests
Supports non-disruptive migration of volumes containing z/VM® mini-disks, full pack mini-disks, and volumes dedicated to CMS users, LINUX® on IBM® Z®, and other guests’ file systems
BMC AMI Storage FDRERASE
Quickly and securely erases z/OS® DASD data from disk volumes
Use at the end of a disaster recovery exercise when decommissioning a disk control unit; after re-assigning disk volumes; or when necessary to erase residual data to meet auditing requirements
Has earned multiple industry certifications including the Common Criteria Evaluation and Validation Scheme (CCEVS) evaluation and Common Criteria EAL2 Augmented validation for disk erasure
Complies with U.S. Government guidelines for erasing computer disks prior to disposal
BMC AMI Storage FDRMOVE
Provides high-performance, non-disruptive or minimally-disruptive movement of z/OS® data sets
Can move data sets between disk volumes in the same disk subsystem, or between disk volumes in different subsystems and between different hardware manufacturers
Ideal for volume consolidation (e.g. consolidating data from three 3390-3s to a single 3390-9) and to free up UCBs where the number is restrained by operating system limits
Use for load balancing to reduce I/O contention within a single DASD subsystem
