Centralized monitoring and operating of the TWS for z/OS and End-To-End Environment

In today’s TWS for z/OS environments maintaining an uninterrupted batch flow is critical. Scheduling staff are required to proficiently run an increasing number of jobs within a static or shrinking batch window. When a failed or delayed job is not identified and attended to immediately the repercussions can extend throughout the entire schedule. On top of all this, Service Level Agreements must still be met.

TWSemon is specifically designed to address these requirements by providing one central point for the monitoring and operating of the TWS for z/OS batch flow running on one or more controllers. The goal of TWSemon is to increase the quality of, and decrease the effort put into, the detection and resolution of out-of-line situations in the batch production environment. Real time monitoring, early detection and timely resolution of these situations is the key to maintaining a smooth running production batch flow.

TWS for z/OS - End to End Monitoring

From one screen all relevant batch production issues are identified through color coding and can be analyzed and immediately resolved. TWS for z/OS controllers of mixed releases are supported and there is no limit to the number of TWS for z/OS controllers that can be monitored. Additional functionality allows for proactive SLA monitoring and monitoring via the web.

Operation of the TWS for z/OS Controllers

The TWSemon interface is also used as a single point of operation of the TWS for z/OS controllers it monitors. Several line commands are available that allow the user to quickly and easily jump directly to a specific TWS controller or even work with a specific issue on a specific controller.

SLA Monitoring for the TWS Environement

TWSemon SLA Realtime Forecast fulfills an essential requirement to proactively determine business services that are at risk of missing agreed service levels. Batch processes under TWS for z/OS can now be managed in a more professional way. Reliable information replaces professional estimates for higher accuracy, predictability and manageability of your mission critical batch processes.

Monitoring TWS for z/OS via the Web

TWSemon Web is a web accessible version of the TWSemon Supervisor Screen (monitoring only). Users can now monitor one or multiple TWS for z/OS controllers right from the intra/internet. Users can request a flowchart of the current plan at the point of any detected error/issue.

Error & Event Reporting and Archiving

All out-of-line situations and actions are logged by the TWSemon Archive Facility, creating a completely centralized audit trail. An archive list can be displayed in the ISPF interface.

Proactive Notification & Automation

A WTO alert message can be issued to the z/OS console for every new event that TWSemon detects. From there any console automation package can be configured to proactively notify personnel about specific TWS errors (email, text message, page, etc.) or automate some type of corrective action.

TWSemon Architecture & Performance

TWSemon was intelligently designed to have a very low footprint on your systems. TWSemon utilizes the operation-status change exit (EQQUX007) for most of its interfacing with TWS for z/OS. The advantage to this design is that the status of your TWS for z/OS jobs are reflected almost instantaneously within the TWSemon interface while having extremely low overhead.

The flexible architecture of TWSemon allows users to monitor and operate multiple TWS for z/OS controllers on multiple LPARS, CPUs, SYSPLEXes or even other data centers. TWSemon fully supports IBM’s TWS End-To-End architecture.
