You have the afternoon off—but not the responsibility of monitoring your system for issues. This includes responding to application and system messages as they occur on your production IBM i jobs. You don’t want to carry your laptop around just in case you need to VPN back to answer a message that is waiting on your month-end process. What option do you have?
Your organization has invested in a security information event manager, or SIEM, to receive and analyse security and event log information from a variety of servers. Now they want to also get this information from their IBM Power Systems server.
Workload automation technology is becoming increasingly sophisticated, but many businesses still haven’t automated to their full potential. Here's how to get there.
Robot Console is a fully automated, customizable tool that sends you only the IBM i messages you need to see. This makes your monitoring more effective—you won’t miss crucial information—and more efficient.
Many devices send status updates using SNMP or simple network management protocol. Make sure you’re getting the message. Read on to see how Robot supports SNMP.
When was the last time you reviewed your Robot Console message automation? If you’re out of practice, let’s take a look at what you can do to maximize your message automation and reports.

Where do you need your enterprise scheduler to run? With Fortra solutions, IBM i and other operating systems like Windows®, Linux®, or UNIX® are all possibilities. Robot Schedule Enterprise is our IBM i-centric solution and the Automate Schedule solution centers on the other platforms.
Because IT enables competitive advantage, workload automation has had to evolve from simple job scheduling on a few mainframes to broader processes that incorporate many platforms and applications.
Your data, your job scheduling tool, your ERP system—they all must work in concert with one another to make your organization as efficient as possible in meeting your customers’ needs as well as your own innovation and production goals.
Is your enterprise job schedule as safe as the rest of your life? The ability to set up alternate reactive paths could be the backup plan you’re looking for.
Understand the importance of job monitoring features: how are they the difference between a schedule that runs smoothly and a schedule that runs rampant?
Whether you’re running Linux on multiple partitions, running multiple operating systems on your Power systems, or running production job streams across those partitions, Automate Schedule can help you manage your workflows on Power servers running Linux.
To effectively and rapidly enable and manage complex business processes, organizations must adopt a unified solution that directly integrates process automation with job scheduling.
