Mainstar FastAudit
The key to metadata integrity
Keep your IBM® z/OS® environment trouble-free with fast, accurate, and flexible audits. With Rocket Mainstar FastAudit, storage administrators can maintain healthy meta-data environments and prevent temporary or permanent loss of data access. FastAudit provides extremely fast,accurate audits and diagnostics, as well as automatic corrective actions to resolve error conditions.
Evaluate the Migration Control Data Set (MCDS), Backup Control Data Set (BCDS), and the Offline Control Data Set (OCDS) to resolve structural and logical discrepancies that can prevent migrated data from being recalled, or prevent backup data from being restored. It correlates entries with the ICF catalog environment to ensure consistency. This function set duplicates most IBM® DFSMShsm™ command audit functions, at many times the speed.
