Press Release

More than a paging system; ACO PAGER™ is a complete systems management solution for your IBM iSeries®.

NORTHWEST INDIANA/CHICAGOLAND, October 5, 2001--DDL Systems Consulting, Inc. announces ACO PAGER™ Message Alert System Version 4.7. ACO PAGER™ manages your iSeries 24 hours a day and notifies you immediately when problems occur.

You set up the specific events you want to monitor (e.g message queues (including QHST), job queues, active jobs, library/file objects, IFS directory objects, spool files, iSeries email, TCP/IP network etc.) and the actions to be performed based on the iSeries specific or generic message id and job information. When a message is sent to a monitored message queue, ACO PAGER™ performs the appropriate user-defined action. ACO PAGER™ notifies you of important system events, eliminates unwanted messages, and ensures problem resolution through message escalation features.

• New ACO ESI™ Enterprise Servers were developed and integrated into ACO PAGER™ that significantly improve performance associated with sending/receiving messages to/from an Enterprise System (e.g. BMC Patrol, Command/Post, or MAX/E).

• Like a job scheduler the ACO Unattended Operations Monitor executes your commands and application programs based on your user-defined entries. However, unlike IBM's job scheduler, this scheduling engine can perform even while the system is in a restricted state. Use this monitor during restricted or non-restricted state processing to perform "lights-out" operations.

• Monitor Integrated File System (IFS) directories and optionally move, copy, or delete IFS objects.

• Enhanced two-way reply/command engine. Receive reply/command confirmation messages on your two-way device and/or e-mail client.

• Monitor library and file object size (including current and deleted record counts).

• Monitor spool file events; scan for messages, keywords, and optionally move, copy, or delete spool files.

• Monitor distribution queues.

• Monitor active joblogs for messages or keywords.

• Support for multiple message action sets and additional generic message action search capabilities.

• Expanded job event monitors allow you to quickly identify problem jobs.
