Featured Solution

Detect and Prevent DASD Growth

The Challenge:
"Temporary storage issues are always a race against the clock for us. We know there is an issue but finding it is a lengthy process. How can we get from point A (detecting there is a problem) to point B (resolving it) in the fastest possible time frame? "

The Solution:
The user may be experiencing substantial delays because their application program is trying to access an object that is in use by another job. It feels like a delay to the user, but in fact, they are locked out. It is very difficult to diagnose lock wait status. So for this problem, QSystem Monitor (QSM) has a dedicated monitor to supply the average lock wait time per transaction for interactive users. If average times are exceeded, QSM immediately alerts managers, pre-empting complaints to the help desk.
