What's included

IBM Z IntelliMagic Vision for z/OS continuously assesses your disk’s health and replication systems. Thus, if there is an incremental degradation in any aspect of your system or a sudden change caused by a hardware failure or a change in resource use or workload pattern, you’ll see it immediately. 

Health insights Interactive topology views Deeper insights Comparisons and exception detection
Daily health insights Health insights and exception reports alert you when your storage systems need attention. Metrics are automatically assessed for each time interval, and they are highlighted if they are not within acceptable bounds. IBM Z IntelliMagic Vision for z/OS also recommends what actions to take depending on what alert is encountered.

 

Drill down to specific volumes, datasets or address spaces Track metrics for synchronous and asynchronous replication Trend analysis for your key I/O measurements AIOps through cloud delivery
Drill down to specific volumes, datasets or address spaces From a time chart, there are many drill downs available to see the metric at a more detailed level of granularity. For even further analysis, more drill downs are available. Rather than static reports, the data shown is based on the interval data of the RMF/SMF records on a near real-time basis.
