Business Continuity

Taking preventative measures for keeping IT continuity issues from becoming business availability challenges

Choose Rocket Mainstar products to protect and extend the value of your mainframe assets

Meet your organization’s recovery imperative and ensure your organization’s reliable business continuity. Recovery is no longer just about disasters. Having servers down for a few minutes, or even a few seconds, can be an operational and financial catastrophe. You must be able to recover quickly from any event, big or small, that threatens business continuity. Businesses strive to be resilient to a variety of outages from minor to catastrophic - or, in other words, to maintain high availability, data protection, and achieve business continuity. The keys to a resilient IBM zSystems/OS environment are incorporating preventative measures and responding quickly to failures.

Give your customers reliability

Business continuity is mission critical for most organizations. Creating a resilient IBM zSystems/OS environment requires the incorporation of preventative measures and having the ability to respond quickly to failures. Rocket Mainstar’s industrial-strength business continuity solutions enable businesses to be more resistant to all types of outages.

Resilient data asset backup and recovery

Without backups, data assets can't be recovered. Mainstar products provide complete data asset backup and recovery, and augment replication and remote mirroring technologies to create a truly resilient data asset protection program for the z/OS environment.

Protecting z/OS infrastructure

With widespread reliance on IT systems, controls are needed to ensure that backups are made before changes are applied, ensuring a quick backout if necessary. Mainstar automatic backups ensure that time-consuming, serious problems don’t occur.

Avoid catastrophic failures

An unexpected, catastrophic ICF catalog failure in any z/OS environment and can lead to hours of downtime. Mainstar products enable the prevention of potential outages as well as forward recovery when necessary.

Asset protection

IBM DFSMShsm manages thousands of data assets, both critical and non-critical, in licensed IT environments. Like ICF catalogs, DFSMShsm’s Control Data Sets (CDS) are key control structures in any z/OS environment and a failure of one of those structures can result in the loss of access to thousands or millions of data assets. Mainstar products can quickly reconcile these differences and build new records to enable data access.
