Are your critical business applications protected from the many unplanned and planned outages that can contribute to application and data unavailability? The very survival of your business may depend upon how quickly you can react to and recover from an unplanned outage such as a disk failure, SAN failure or an entire site failure. Is your business-critical data protected from a site disaster? Do you put off system maintenance and upgrades to avoid system downtime?
This session will provide an overview of how GDPS, IBMs industry-leading, multi-site application availability solution, integrates key availability technologies such as Parallel Sysplex, Remote Copy technologies Metro Mirror (PPRC), Global Mirror and z/OS Global Mirror(XRC) together with System Automation for z/OS to enhance application availability and improve disaster recovery. The basic GDPS functions, GDPS/PPRC, GDPS/XRC, GDPS/GM configuration combinations, options, positioning will be discussed, recent GDPS enhancements will be reviewed, and real customer implementation scenarios and business benefits will be presented.
