Systemwalker Operation Manager supports the following functions:
Automation of routine system operation and management
By installing Systemwalker Operation Manager, routine system operation and management can be automated as follows:
Automatic control of power on/off
Power to the server can be automatically turned on/off. Power on/off of the server is conducted according to a time schedule that is defined in advance. Also, power to the server can be automatically turned on when a client starts.
Note that this function is enabled only for Solaris servers that are running Systemwalker Operation Manager UNIX version.
Automatic activation of the services/applications
When the server is booted, services and applications are activated in the order in which they are registered. You can change the services and applications on any given day.
Note that this automatic activation of the services can be used only when the connected server is for the Windows version.
Automatic execution of a routine batch job
If you register the times and dates at which a routine batch job is run, the routine batch job is automatically executed according to that schedule. If an error occurs in a routine batch job, it can be corrected automatically without the intervention of the operator.
Scheduling file compression and transfer
The commands used for file compression and transfer are provided as job-associated commands. If you register these files with the job scheduler, you can execute these commands by scheduling.
Monitoring and operating a job on the screen
By installing Systemwalker Operation Manager, you can confirm the job execution status at a glance because the job status is displayed in different colors. You can monitor jobs running not only on a single system but also those running on multiple systems.
Moreover, you can operate a job while monitoring its status.
Control of job execution according to the system operation and status
Systemwalker Operation Manager enables you to control the job execution, as follows:
Control of job execution environment
Jobs can be executed efficiently by adjusting the job execution environments such as the execution order and the number of jobs that can be executed simultaneously.
Job execution with networked servers
Jobs can be executed on any server connected to the network.
Control of networked clients
You can provide clients that are connected over the network with controls such as power-on and file transfer.
