New versions of OMEGAMON IMS, Storage and Messaging announced

Yesterday IBM announced new versions of OMEGAMON IMS, OMEGAMON Storage, and OMEGAMON for Messaging.  These new versions continue the process that was begun earlier this year of expanding the integration and consolidation of the OMEGAMON 3270 interface capablities.  And, as always, and new version of OMEGAMON is always an exciting event.

IBM Tivoli OMEGAMON XE for IMS on z/OS V5.1, IBM Tivoli OMEGAMON XE for Storage on z/OS V5.1, and IBM Tivoli OMEGAMON XE for Messaging on z/OS V7.1 use a new architecture that simplifies installation (PARMGEN) and includes integrated enhanced 3270 monitors (the new enhanced 3270 ui). These products integrate related data to help subject matter experts  solve problems encountered on a day-to-day basis.

 

New capabilities of IBM Tivoli OMEGAMON XE for IMS on z/OS V5.1, IBM Tivoli OMEGAMON XE for Storage on z/OS V5.1, and IBM Tivoli OMEGAMON XE for  Messaging on z/OS V7.1 are designed to:

• Improve problem resolution efficiency by requiring fewer steps to isolate root  cause performance impact in real time, and, therefore, providing greater availability. 
• Improve visibility, control, and automation with a new more comprehensive 3270-based user interface capable of viewing the entire enterprise-wide environment from a single 3270 screen. 
• Reduce the time required for installation, configuration, and maintenance by leveraging enhanced IBM Tivoli Monitoring functions and a new PARMGEN configuration tool.
• Provide an enterprise end-to-end view of performance monitoring and availability on a common technology for both IBM System z® and open systems.

I will be blogging extensively on the capabilities of the new versions in the next few days.
