Unified Job Scheduling for Mixed OS Environments

摘要

When an enterprise uses multiple servers, making the best use of available resources and keeping track of system workloads efficiently can become complicated. The challenges are compounded when that group of servers is made up of machines that use multiple operating systems. But in a business environment that uses mergers and acquisitions, IT staffs can find themselves facing a requirement to manage multiple operating systems without the luxury of expanding operations staff. One iSeries-compatible solution that can be of use is Software and Management Associates, Inc.'s OpCon/xps, an operations-control and job-scheduling management product for multiple OS environments.
