We used to us an IBM product, but OPS/MVS has a lot more flexibility in what we can do with it. We're able to do a lot more ad hoc-type things. We can set up for different events, or do out-paging for a mainframe interface, or issue MVS commands. It's flexible enough for us to use it when needed…

Key learnings from peers

Valuable Features

"Valuable features include: SSM, which provides for orderly startup and shutdown; OPSLOG, which enables filtering by message-id, and/or jobname(s);Rules, as OPS/REXX interface streamlines deployment, interfaces easily with JES2 and z/OS."
"OPS/REXX is valuable because it allows us almost unlimited flexibility in automating our system."
"Because we can define complex commands, the training of new operators is quicker. We can also put checks in place, that will prevent user errors."

Room for Improvement

"The interfaces to USS, CA UIM could be better.CA Common Services interfaces - namely Zdata Mover, Zmessage Service, Zdatacolletcor - are poorly documented."
"Performing a stop/restart of OPS/MVS could be a little smoother. Without special coding, some undesired tasks will be started and some necessary tasks will be stopped if we have to bounce OPS/MVS during the day."
"One thing that comes to mind is the MQ interface. The last time we tried to use it, it seemed a little clunky."
