The document introduces ujestm, a tool designed to manage Unix and Windows batch applications similarly to z/os, addressing several drawbacks of Unix systems. It emphasizes the importance of centralized control, improved file management, and compatibility with z/os job entry systems. Ujestm caters to MVS users who seek to streamline their production processes while utilizing familiar management practices.
uJES: Linking applications, services, databases & legacy systems.
- 1. Control your UNIX or Windows Batch applications the same way you do it in z/OS ! uJES
- 2. 2 Other MVS users really want to control part of the UNIX batch production process while retaining their habits and working methods z/OS vs UNIX: Some facts uJES is intended to be used by people who understand the MVS production Some MVS users find themselves unwillingly involved with UNIX systems MVS has been a proven technology for many years, operated by reliable staff with highly valuable skills. The UNIX operating system was never designed to manage an IT batch production. # 1 # 2 # 3 # 4 # 5
- 3. 3 No information centralization Very poor incident management solution No control facilities No SYSOUT management No traceability No tools to enforce UNIX rules No file organization Directories search and scripts decoding are required to locate a file No understanding of scripts and symbolic Unix: Major drawbacks
- 4. 4 Complex file management system No control of file usage or availability No utilities to remove obsolete files No knowledge outsourcing is available Operator is required to have UNIX system programmer skills Risky decision making process. No impact measurement with restart actions And more Unix: Major drawbacks
- 5. 5 Centralized Output An MVS / SDSF like SYSOUT management A simple way to group and view all the outputs produced by all the processes in a unique location Focal Point An MVS / JES like centralized system Process control of UNIX environments Complete control of the UNIX production from a central uJES console Supports distributed systems or not Why uJES?
- 6. 6 File Identification UNIX files are externalized with the use of the Data Set concept Catalogs and Aliases offer a simplified view of the UNIX file system MVS / JES like Generation Data Groups Process Management Optimize parallel process execution using Initiators Resources balancing using Execution classes , Execution priority and initiators availability Why uJES?
- 7. 7 UNIX JCL Separates the production rules from the UNIX program of scripts logic Isolates the production concerns from the programming objectives Simplifies the operator and the programmer tasks. Resources Management MVS like file usage control with the File Disposition concept Like in MVS , no shared or exclusive file usage conflicts File allocation and release management Why uJES?
- 9. uJES provides JES facilities like in z/OS: Readers, Initiators and Printers Centralized Control of Jobs and Outputs Job Management with Job Class and Priority JES Data Sets for In Stream data (Sysin) and System Outputs (Sysout); z/OS like Consoles and Console Management; z/OS Catalogs and Data Sets; z/OS JCL Interpretation and z/OS Utility emulation; z/OS Partitioned Data Sets and Generation Data Group z/OS Input Data Set Concatenation Data Set Allocation / Release according to Disposition; RACF like Security to control Program Execution and Data Set Access. 9 uJES Overview
- 10. In uJES, a Program is a UNIX Script or a Windows Batch File. uJES can run Programs as they are or by submitting a Job containing z/OS JCL Statements. When using a Job, uJES does exactly the same as z/OS: DD Statements describe how to allocate Data Sets Catalogs are used to assign Data Sets UNIX or Windows file paths; File paths in the Script or Batch Files can be replaced by Environment Variables; STEPLIBs, JOBLIBs and 'Link Lists' are used to locate Programs from EXEC Statements. uJES JCL also supports: Procedure & Procedure Libraries Include Members and Symbol Substitution. Jobs can be submitted from the outside, e.g a UNIX Scheduling System. 10 uJES Overview
- 12. Several uJES Systems can be connected each other and controlled from a single Console. Consoles are local or remote and operate in Graphic or Line mode. Line mode Consoles allows external applications to control or monitor a uJES System. 12 uJES Network
- 14. z/OS Systems have a Job Entry Subsystem, JES2 or JES3. The uJES z/OS Bridge: Makes JES look like a uJES Node Allows z/OS and uJES to work together. 14 z/OS Connectivity
- 15. Behond uJES uJES is not a Scheduling system uJES provides a global solution to fix the UNIX deficiencies Runs Stand-Alone or not. Provides feed-back about submitted jobs & processes. Federates various scheduling systems. Reduces tracking agents Reduces product interfaces 15
- 16. uJES: Build your License 18 Create your configuration: CPU models, MIPS, users independent Each platform is a node (others call it Agent) Each z/OS is also a node (optional) Web technical support and problem solving included Control your Budget: Select the quantity and type nodes you need Telephone support assistance (optional) Purchase product upgrades (when necessary)
